In the bowels of Fanfiction.net lurks the LOTR crossover, a monster bred by the foul craft of merciless fangirls. Only the strong of stomach should read Branwyn's LOTR Crossover List

Bill and Ted? Excellent!
Redwall? *runs right over to look*

There were several Redwall crossovers on ff.net. I haven't read the books, but from the sounds of them, the two universes would work well together. Though I wrote this as joke, I do like some of the ideas (Elrond and Jean Luc would be so sympatico).

Alas, I loved the Redwall books more than my children did; I just could not get them to read fantasy for love nor money. As far as we ever got with those books was to name a cat after one of the characters. I should go back and read them all myself! There were quite a few more written after I gave up trying to shove them at my kids.

There are a lot of Redwall books! My 4th and 5th grade students that enjoy fantasy books really enjoy the books, but there are soooooo many other wonderful fantasy books for kids right now as well.

Heh. I've written a Silm/HP crossover myself. :p

And I also have a LotR/Alien(cats included) crossover in the works too. And, one day, I may even finish it.

I was so relieved when that ginger cat showed up at the beginning of the second Alien movie! I had been worried about it ever since the end of the first movie.

Heh, you and me both. :) On the other hand, one cat got away, while many humans got eaten. That says something about species: purring pawns the opposable thumb any time.

I've seen a few LOTR/ST: TNG crossovers; het and slash (pairing Elrond with Picard). I remember one story that had the Elves, possibly the Noldor though it might have been the Moriquendi, eventually becoming Vulcans, or ending up on Mintaka 3 or something.

I've also looked at at least one Buffy/LOTR crossover. I have vague, and vaguely troubling, memories of one tale where Buffy and Aragorn fall in love over a period of 50 years or so (Buffy midwives Boromir, Valar help us, while serving in Gondor as Thorongil's bodyguard), and another story where Buffy and Legolas fall in love.

I really wish I'd done a better job of saving my "Top 10 Things That Spike Would Say or Do in Middle-earth" list....


I wouldn't mind seeing a Star Trek Original Series/LOTR crossover, just to see Dr. McCoy in the Houses of Healing offering some choice comments on Aragorn's methods (and maybe some help), and Spock talking to Denethor (or Gandalf, or encountering Tom Bombadil) and of course Captain Kirk at Helm's Deep or riding with the Rohirrim (of course if he did that, Eowyn would have fallen for him instead of Faramir, it's inevitable when Kirk meets eligible and prominent women).

Spock talking to Denethor (or Gandalf, or encountering Tom Bombadil)
I can imagine Spock, that one eyebrow raised halfway up his forehead, listening to Bombadil ramble on.
