Despite the petty annoyances, I do love all the films (so far). The older members here can attest to my dedication to Tolkien AND PJ's vision for the films. For those members wondering what has become of me since last we spoke, I unfortunately lost my cafe, the Misty Mountain Bakery Cafe, to foreclosure this past spring. The economy killed my dream. And my choice to place it in the stunning, but sparsely populated, wilderness of the Adirondack Mountains probably didn't help. If there are any wealthy TORn members interested in buying a lovely cafe with the hard-carved floor of Meduseld and Elvish writing over the door, let me know -- it is still for sale :-( -- cheap!
As for the small factual errors, they do not spoil the films. I just have to wonder WHY?
I actually quite liked a number of changes PJ made, even ones I thought improved on the story (sorry Professor). But these tiny mistakes just have me baffled.

Speaking of facts: does Bilbo fib to the dwarves after eluding Gollum?
