Is Frodo the 'King ' who returns? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

This is an idea that occurred to me recently - That the return of the King refers to Frodo, not to Aragorn. I threw it into a thread on the Movies forum - 'How many changes', & got a mixed response, some shot me down, some seemed interested. The more I think about it the more it seems right, that the title is ironic. I won't repeat what I said on the other thread, but what do others think?
