The movie It doesn’t have as many title drops as I would’ve expected. Also I don’t recall anyone ever saying The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring in that film.

You should, perhaps, read the article.

I obviously read at least some of the article.

I think the GP's point (badly made) may be that the Lord of the rings example is addressed explicitly in the article.

"titles containing a colon are split and either side counts as a title drop. So for The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring either "Lord of the Rings" or "Fellowship of the Ring" would count as title drops"
