People don't go to the movies for lessons in history. I think that implies that no, most don't care much about historical accuracy. Nothing wrong with wanting to be entertained and facts be damned.

Me, because I really dig history, find the misrepresentations very annoying often. There are times when I can overlook the inconsistencies or outright errors, but it does color my impression of what it is I'm viewing/reading/enjoying.
