I am not sure what people are saying about him staying true to the vision of the books, he did stray some in Fellowship of the Ring. And Two Towers and Return of the King seemed oriented on cinematography of grand battle scenes and swooping shots over New Zealand. I know that's exaggeration, but whenever I see that in a film, I think "why bother? that time could have been spent on story, not making me want to visit the sites of LoTR".
I'm not sure if you are confusing Goblin-town with Moria?
