So for the first night of Disney+ I watched the first two episodes of The Mandalorian and really enjoyed it. It still felt like the Star Wars universe, yet a completely separate part of the galaxy far far away.
For those that don't know, Mandalorians are a race of bounty hunters like Boba Fett from The Empire Strikes Back - they get tasked to bring in bounties dead or alive (more for alive).
The TV show is set five years after the fall of Darth Vader and the Empire - yet there are remnants of the former empire in hiding throughout the galaxy. The TV show follows the titular Mandalorian who is tasked by a former Empire officer with collecting an off the books bounty. The bounty has definite links back to the original trilogy, though we don't know how yet.
I thought it was great to see the old beaten up Jawa sandcrawler reappear in this series - that was cool.
So much to talk about about I'll let others chime in once you've caught up with the episodes!
