I fully believe that the movies will remain a pinacle of cinematic achievement. The Lord of the Rings valentines and party supplies may fade, but the films will be remembered for generations.
Take a look at the books. They sure stuck around.

My problem with the movies was that the depth & background of the world Tolkien created was lost, the story was simplified to the point of triviality & the motivations of the characters was altered to the point of silliness in some cases.

I'm past the point of arguing it, but I disagree heavily with this characterization of the film(s).
