Why the Rings of Power will HAVE to be discussed in these movies by THe Council, just as the book says.

It maybe could have been avoided, save for a key moment in this first film.. . a very astute and perspicacious Wizard saw Bilbo slip a golden trinket into his pocket while preveracating on the matter of his escape from the goblins. . . the Wizard not only notices, he is concerned, enough that he decides the dwarves don't need to inquire any further into the matter, and hastens to negate the subject. Having done this, the film makers now all but HAVE to give a plausible reason for Gandalf not to be all over Bilbo about the Ring henceforth. The only way to do that is to make it clear to everyone that there "are many Magic Rings in this world," and that while "none of them should be used lightly", some certainly are less a cause of concern than others. Many of us have seen the B-clip of Saruman discussing The Dwarf Rings. My guess is that it is a scene which we WILL be seeing in the subsequent films, and there will be more talk of The Ring, the other Great Rings, and the lesser rings besides. The Audience will need to be reminded not to be hasty, and that there is still every reason to believe that Bilbo's little ring that makes you invisible could still be nothing more than one of the many lesser magical rings, not even obvious as A Great Ring let alone The Ruling Ring.
"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."

I think that the DoS prologue would be the most natural place to discuss about the Rings.

Who said the rings will be blamed for the greed?

There is a ring that is likely a Ring on Thror's finger in that prologue.

With the Necromancer in the picture, there is little choice.
