If an Enterprise away team landed in Middle Earth

[IronWing]

where and when would you have them land?

Would Kirk wrassle Sauron?

Would Spock dance with Galadriel?

Would Wesley Crusher get eaten by Carcharoth?

 

[amdhunter]

Damn! Can you imagine Sauron's army if they all got Borg'd out?

 

[blackdogdeek]

All I'd worry about is what color my shirt was.

this

or i'd turn it into the gangster/ancient roman/nazi planet for lulz

 

[AViking]

I think they'd get killed. Pwnd even. They have phasers and transporters vs rings of invisiblility. Good luck with that.

 

[ultimatebob]

Bah.. why even bother landing. A few photon torpedos to Mt Doom should have fixed the issue well enough. Then beam up Frodo and vaporize that damn ring with a phaser.

 

[SamQuint]

The elves would welcome home their pointy ear brother Spock!

Checkov would find the ring and become the new Gollum.

Kirk would be banging some hot elves.

Scotty would be getting drunk with the dwarves.

Kirk would be banging some hot elves.

Scotty would be getting drunk with the dwarves.

And even though were talking about TOS, Worf would show up and restore honor to the race of Men!

 

[Sonikku]

Picard would make a compelling speech and get Sauron to embrace peace instead of war.

Scotty would be getting drunk with the dwarves.

And Sulu would seduce Legolas.

I was really hoping this thread would have a link to a video of the title topic

This.

 

[KLin]

Spock would vulcan death grip the shit out of everyone.

 

[angminas]

McCoy forsakes the medical field and becomes Gandalf's disciple in the mystical arts. People ask him for treatment and he shouts "I'm a magician, not a doctor!"

Kirk scolds Aragorn for being a totalitarian dictator and they have a really slow fistfight.

Spock spends all his time playing chess with Sauron.

With Chekhov's help, a team of hobbits sneaks aboard the Enterprise and steals a food replicator. Diabetes rates in the Shire skyrocket.

Scott marries a dwarven brewer's daughter, moves to Bree, and opens an inn to rival The Prancing Pony. Soon the town is embroiled in a Yojimboesque blood feud where travellers are forced to choose sides.

Forced out of Gondor by rampant racism, Uhura defects to the Southrons and becomes a warrior queen.

Sulu fits in with the elves just fine.

 

[Atomic Playboy]

I'm pretty sure they already did.

 

[ElFenix]

isn't the first rule of starfleet 'don't talk to pre-warp cultures about starfleet'?

 

[Gooberlx2]

Kirk would wrassle Galadriel.

 

[dave_the_nerd]

Meh. They walked, like, a thousand miles in, like, three hours. They have to have some kind of fancy technology.

 

[Arcadio]

Damn.. I'm a geek, but this thread is just too geeky for me.

 

[IronWing]

I think having evil Spock use the Enterprise's phasers to blow the gates off Minas Troni during the battle would be fun. Or have good Spock nail a Nasgul with a tractor beam.

 

[Sonikku]

They're more like "guidelines" than actual rules...

 

[rudder]

Beam out of there and nuke the area from orbit. I don't think rings of invincibility can save you from a nuke.

 

[rudder]

I'm pretty sure they already did.

That was from the episode where the Enterprise chefs picked up some strange mushrooms on Talos 18 and served them to the crew.

 

[RearAdmiral]

Thx for giving me my next pickup line.

 

[JulesMaximus]

Damn! Can you imagine Sauron's army if they all got Borg'd out?

For one, Pippen and Merry wouldn't have escaped that's for sure.
