There have been a hellova lot of good crossover opportunities in the first few episodes of season 5 of Merlin - this was one moment in the first episode - anyone else spot it? Merlin and Arthur were hiding under a 'shelf' created by the roots of a tree and I was like "Oh come on.. that's just asking for a Lord of the Rings crossover!" And i think Gwaine and Merlin did it again this week.. oh boys..

Hahaha, good point... I got rid of the snow so that it'd match the snow-less LOTR scene but completely forgot that sleighs need snow to run.

Thanks hun!! Morgana's hair is a challenge! As are hands... but an enjoyable challenge.

I've always noticed the similarities between Merlin and LOTR and this just made me laugh so hard because that pretty much sums everythingn up.

You should do Arthur dropping into Old Merlin's house in S4E3, with Merlin jabbering on about him coming in 30 minutes just like in The Sword in the Stone x3

I'm not the only person who thought about that during that episode...right?

OMG why can't I remember that bit from Sword in the Stone? I feel terrible.. but it sounds like someone should do that crossover.. someone who remembers it!

Awesome!
But there are more things that does me think of Lord of the rings.
The tower from the castle of the fisherking does me think of Orthanc. Just an example

blackbirdrose In reply to Ewijn2012 [2012-11-13 16:53:22 +0000 UTC]

True.. and the tower in the latest episode of season 5 was very Isengard like.

Ewijn2012 In reply to blackbirdrose [2012-11-13 18:16:29 +0000 UTC]

Please don't tell more about season 5. I've only seen the first three episodes of it. But Isn't the orthanc the Isengard tower?

OK. Is it? I hadn't heard that name for it before.

Ewijn2012 In reply to blackbirdrose [2012-11-16 19:02:35 +0000 UTC]

Ah, is allright.
But then the Orthanc is the tower of Isengard (I'm a little bit a lotr nerd )
