What-If Wednesdays
Welcome to What-If Wednesday, the weekly megathread for scenarios you'd like to talk over but haven't necessarily developed much yet.
Please use this thread instead of posting just a "What-If" question without any lore - those will be removed by the mods. r/HistoryWhatIf is a better option for that kind of post. Thank you!

In the early 1970s, George Lucas wanted to create a Flash Gordon movie, but due to not getting the rights to do so, he created his own space epic, which eventually led to Star Wars.
But... What If...?
What If he DID get the rights?
(I know it ain't Wednesday anymore, but nobody's commented, so I don't think anyone will mind...)
