I think that Dragon Reborn has it about right (welcome to the Downs, by the way). I have watched the films only a handful of times each and I seem to have far less complaints than most.
There is, I suspect, also an element of people trying to prove that they are bona fide book fans by trying to find every minor detail that varies from the story presented in the book. My own view is that, if one is sufficiently confident in one's appreciation of the book, then one should be able to accept differences in the films. They are, after all, only an adaptations. Unless something doesn't work within the films (ie gives rise to an internal consistency) then I have don't have a problem with it.
With one exception, of course. My dislike of those Lemming-Hyenas is purely subjective. I was so looking forward to seeing Wargs and I didn't see anything resembling a Warg until Grond came along.
