The plot point is that you cannot be tracked while in hyperspace. Something the first order was able to do so they could follow them to their destination. Trackers are well established in the universe otherwise. They just only work outside of hyperspace.
Last Jedi was so angering that it killed all desire I had for watching rise of Skywalker, rise was the only star wars movie I’ve ever skipped, and still haven’t watched.
When instead of sacrificing ackbar, they kill him in the background and we’re supposed to care about the sacrifice of this random woman we’ve never ever met before and just shows up to die? Should have been ackbar or Leia or even wedge. And one thing I liked about TFA was the budding relationship between Rey and Finn, they had great chemistry. Then suddenly you separate them for the whole second movie, add a second love interest that’s awful and for some reason Rey likes Kylo? The fuck??
I feel really bad for Rise of Skywalker, it was really in an impossible position.
First, Last Jedi painted them into a fucking corner. It was like nobody told Johnson he was making the middle part of a trilogy.
Second, what little structure the trilogy had was 7 was about Solo, 8 was about Luke, and 9 would have been about Leia, but then Carrie Fisher up and died. :(
They had to really scramble on the 3rd one and losing the original writer/director didn’t help. Abrams had to come in after 8 shit the bed and Fisher died and tried to make the best of it…
Last Jedi:
Leia gives Rey a hand held tracking device and tells her that with it she will be able to find them wherever they go.
In THE SAME SCENE, they come out of Hyperspace followed by the First Order and claim it’s impossible to have followed them.
The tracking plot point is not mentioned again.
(p.s. A similar tracker was placed on board the Falcon in the OG Star Wars to lead the Death Star to the rebel base on Yavin 4).
The plot point is that you cannot be tracked while in hyperspace. Something the first order was able to do so they could follow them to their destination. Trackers are well established in the universe otherwise. They just only work outside of hyperspace.
That’s cheating, none of that movie made any sense whatsoever.
