    A “biblical style epic” about the Jedi with no lightsabers. I’m sure this will please the most toxic fan base in the world the way he is hoping.

      Why would league of legends players care about this?

      I’m sure we can watch them invent lightsabers, hyperdrives, and discover midichlorians. Maybe they can crossover and find the Planet of the Apes—that would be a wizard Easter egg.

      Maybe we’ll find out the Dark Side comes from anti-midichlorians instead of just human nature. Someone get me Hollywood—I’m sitting on a goldmine of ideas here!

        Yeah but the ideas Lucasfilm/Disney want to use are more in the line of:

        The Force will originate from a group of pastel colored beings called Care Bears combining their magical powers, and their handler, called Captain Planet, loudly proclaiming “by your powers combined, I declare the force created!”

        Then we’ll have the illegitimate brother of captain planet, lets call him Darkstepper, wanting to harness the new magic for himself, devises a way to extract it from the Care Bears, and turn it into dark magic.

        But Captain Planet comes to the rescue and makes the Care Bears agree to release all combined magic into the air to prevent misuse, unbeknowst to them they will dissolve from this action, but in the end they see they will live on in the stream of all encompassing magic created from their being.

        Oh, we’ll also need a throwback, so they give us “Horses in Space”… somehow.

        This is what we will get when they proclaim “screw the lore/we’re not bound by lore”

        In closing: Why create something within an exisiting IP if you feel you don’t want to be bound by the existing ip in the first place?
