Few things ruin an otherwise actually kind-of-okay crossover fanfiction than suddenly bringing in more franchises outside the original premise of the crossover.
I'd never heard of this before. It's a Star Trek/Star Wars crossover, right? What else did they add? I'm almost afraid to ask. BSG? Warhammer 40K? Teletubbies?
A couple of cameos by assorted characters including the Doctor, which I'd be okay with if not for the fact that one of the Doctor's cameos is plot-critical.
Then in the last few chapters two characters just start randomly continuity-hopping, with visits to Middle-Earth, new!BSG, Aliens, and what could be either Shaun of the Dead or The Walking Dead. It is pointless, silly, self-indulgent, and does nothing for the story.

Well... this is awkward news for my current fic's outline. ^_^;
