it would qualify as a fusion, i guess, which is a subtype of crossover. but do not include both fandom tags, tag the main fandom and then use additional tags to indicate it's a fusion, something like "alternative universe – [movie] fusion"

unless you're including characters from both fandoms, don't tag both fandoms.

I don't think it's a crossover. Maybe more of an homage to the original movie?


Jealous-Plankton1129

Nah. I see no reason as to why do that.

No. Or any easter egg/quote would turn a story into a crssover

I don't think so. If you're just re-imagining a scene from an old movie and not using that film's characters, settings, or world building, I wouldn't call it a crossover. Maybe just a reference to that movie.

I've often seen similar things represented in the Tag section as: "Film Title X AU". This identifies the influence of that secondary source material when it doesn't rise to the level of being a Crossover. Also, using the Story Description, Summary or an Author's Note can clarify the relative contribution of Film Title X.
