Yeh, true. And speaking of which, Jackson's portrayal of the themes regarding the dwarves' overall story is actually much closer to Tolkien's later and more sympathetic (and post-WWII) revised portrayal of dwarves in LoTR than Tolkien's own earlier portrayal of dwarves in the Hobbit book was (e.g.: the whole tragedy of Moria, and Gimli's view of Aglarond, both of which illustrate WHY dwarves are so obsessed with beautiful things and old treasures, and it has nothing to do with material greed). You could kind of say that several dwarf-related bits in LoTR are kind of fixits for iffy things from the Hobbit, so Jackson was really continuing on Tolkien's change in attitude over time in that regard.

Which is not to say the movies didn't fuck up way more than they did right, but they definitely did do SOME things right.
