| @jennyemelie- I actually did that on purpose. The Lord of the Rings was written by Tolkien as a single story and broken into three books by the publisher. In fact, Tolkien himself objected to the title "The Return of the King" fearing that it gave the story away. (If the book had to be broken up, he wanted to call the third volume "The War of the Ring.") The Harry Potter series, on the other hand, was conceived, written and converted to film as a series of stories, as J.K. Rowling intended. As such, the quiz accepts "The Lord of the Rings" as that's the title of the entire work but not "Harry Potter" as that's the title of none of the individual works or movies but just the lead character's name. ('Return of the King' by itself is also accepted.) I realize I'm combining literary and movie issues, but that was the reasoning behind it. |
