I don't think he would have been insulted by the movies. He may have been a little disapointed or upset that some things were changed, so much so that they were almost different characters, but overall I think he would've been happy with most of the movies. The movies introduced many people to the world of Middle Earth, encouraging them to read the books, and so he would've been happy that they did that.
