Return of the Jedi belongs under &#8220;R,&#8221; not &#8220;S&#8221; as in Star Wars Episode IV: Return of the Jedi. This rule applies to all films in the original Star Wars trilogy; all that followed start with &#8220;S.&#8221; Similarly, Raiders of the Lost Ark belongs under &#8220;R,&#8221; not &#8220;I&#8221; as in Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark. Conversely, all films in the Lord of the Rings series belong under &#8220;L&#8221; and all films in the Chronicles of Narnia series belong under &#8220;C,&#8221; as that&#8217;s what those filmmakers called their films from the start. In other words, movies are stuck with the titles their owners gave them at the time of their theatrical release. Use your better judgment to apply the above rule to any series\/films not mentioned. <\/p>\n<p>4. Films that start with a number are filed under the first letter of their number&#8217;s word. 12 Monkeys would be filed under &#8220;T.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>5.
