If there is anything to quibble over, three things come to mind. A) it is unfortunate that Elrond is being portrayed as something of a dong here, since he actually was completely on the same page with Gandalf about the likelihood of Sauron launching another great war. B) The Watchful peace actually ended long before Gollum found The Ring. The Span of time is right, but the period is wrong, and I think it would have been much better to simply have had Elrond say that for 900 years (give or take a few decades) they had experienced a watchful peace, as it would have been a more impressive time frame and kept the actual beginning period of The Watchful Peace (also caused largely by Gandalf's "meddling"), as well as the actual years which encompassed The Watchful Peace C) I am still waiting to see if these films will make any ties to The Balrog, the Bane of The Dwarven Father-King (albeit in one of his re-incarnations) and the original Third Age Woe of The Dwarves as a people, and also the second Darkest and most powerful Dark Power still known to reside in all Middle Earth at the time. In the books, The Council does not know for certain that The Terror in Moria is a Balrog, but in the films they are well aware of it, and it would seem more than passing strange indeed for them to be fretting over the potential foes Sauron might bring to bear and NOT give any thought to the most obvious dread ally, a former co-captain in the service of Melkor The Morgoth (as strange as ignoring his quiet but pivotal role in the final decisions of THe Dwarves immediately following the Azanulbizar battle).
"Hear me, hounds of Sauron, Gandalf is here! Fly if you value your foul skins, I will shrivel you from tail to snout if you step within this circle!" "Do not be to eager to deal out death in judgement. Even the very wise cannot see all ends."
