Yeah, normal people already thought that there was too much "Old English" language in the film anyway (even though there wasn't any at all). What happened was just basically a moderization of the languague used in the books. Though I understand why this would concern book readers. I remember when this caused the most trouble for me. About two years ago I was trying to find Gandalf's quote where he says: "So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide..." (a very familiar quote). I knew for a fact that the quote was in the book not where it was in the film. But I had forgotten where it was since the first few times I had read the book, so I went on a very detailed search, eventually finding it many, many, many chapters before Moria, even though I do think it did fit very much into the Moria scene. But the fact that the actual location was so far from the movie location did bother me a little.
