      If Smaug never sacked Erebor then none of it would have ever happened, no Gandolf going to Bilbos, no adventure for Bilbo and definitely no ring. Or I could say if the dwarves weren't so greedy hoarding all that gold to attract the dragon in the first place none of it would have taken place. (Just saying)

    From the opposite side, things which die-hard Tolkien fans were the only ones to even know about:
    Merry and Pippin's swords weren't given to them by Aragorn; they were obtained from a burial mound (barrow) and the swords were magical, especially designed to fight against dark powers such as the ringwraiths. The ringwraiths were invulnerable to ordinary weapons, but a single blow from one of the magic weapons was enough to make a ringwraith temporarily vulnerable to a blow from an ordinary weapon.
    Which explains what happened with Eowyn and the Witch King.

    When shooting scenes in Wellington, viggo mortensen liked to stay in character the whole time. One particular night Viggo decided to running around the streets of wellington in costume, swinging his sword and yelling. Concerned civilians nearby looked at him and called the police saying there was a mad man running around the streets swinging a sword. Police arrived and asked Viggo to put the sword down and he replied with "Do you know who I am? I am Aragorn, son of Arathorn!" The police then arrested Viggo and took him to the police station.
    The next morning the Peter Jackson and producers went to the police station and explained Viggo's method acting, so they set him free.
    Till this day at Wellington Police Station there is a plaque saying "Do You Know I am? I am Aragorn, Son of Arathorn! - Viggo Mortensen"

    This is the first time I heard that Tolkien thought that Sam was the true hero of the story. I've always thought this. He was thought of as fat, silly and timid, yet he was the only one other than Bilbo(questionably) who used the one ring and resisted. Even Gandalf was afraid of it. Sam willingly gave it back to Frodo without being prompted. The only other person who did that was Tom. I believe Tolkien put Tom in the story to parallel how powerful Sam's will was.

As you mentioned they had problemes with the casting of Aragon, so Viggo entered the set in the last minute. He needed a crash curs in sword fighting, cause he should fight five Nazguls and should look like a profi. On the other hand all four Hobbit-Actors had sword fight lessons since one month, so they really knew much of tricks - however had to play the weak Hobbits.

    XD Last year for Hobbit Day, my online friends and I planned to do a marathon of the extended editions of both the Hobbit and LOTR trilogy. I was the only one who stayed awake for the full 26 hours it took to complete that (there was a few hours between the trilogies to let some people sleep).
    Also, a cameo most wouldn't know... that orc pulling from the well behind Saruman as he walks by is one of New Zealand's news anchors at the time, Paul Holmes. I remember the news segment that showed him getting prosthetics applied and doing the filming. I specifically remember the way he moved as he pulled the rope.
    Though that being said, being from NZ, I know HEAPS of people that were extras in the movies, or worked on props. From my media studies teacher being an elf at Helm's Deep, a friend's mother making the dead body props, my grandfather's horses being in the battles, and our local sword guy making sword props.
