The Lord of the Rings:
- The Ring and it's friends - Hobbits on the run - Sauron's happy time goods - The Return of the bads - Gandalf's hat goes on an adventure. Also there is a ring involved. - Mystical adventure about Rings and Lords and wars and all the stuff that was good in The Hobbit but bigger and better and this is a long title. -  - A Hobbit, A Ring and a Whole world of trouble! - Not the Three o'clock News.

Hmmm...let's see now.
Sam's suggestion Ring Around the Rosie was immediately rejected. The Gaffer's All's Well as Ends Better was thought to be a bit too anti-climactic. Aragorn's A Tree Grows on Mindolluin was considered too sentimental. Treebeard's Forest Stump was cut down rather quickly. Saruman's offering Get Shorty was denied as rude. Elrond's Mr. Smith goes to Rivendell was considered too anachronistic. And an apologetic Lobelia Sackville-Baggins offered Taming of the Shrew, but it was too topical.
