#3 & #4 are the same (Lord Of the Rings - The Return Of the King). Also #8 &#11 (The Hobbit- The Battle Of the Five Armies). Plus the following (6) Albums all made the US Billboard charts (per Joel Whitburn). They are all listed under 'Movie Soundtracks'. The first (3) are listed under 'The Lord Of the Rings' and the last (3) under 'The Hobbit'.

This is a complex set of mappings to get correct, hopefully the new mappings will sort out the remaining issues Thanks
