I'm sure it isn't just you, but since I'm mostly unfamiliar with the factual basis, for example, it matters not at all to me whether The King's Speech and The Social Network are 100% factual or 100% fiction.
Now, that wouldn't be the case if I were familiar with them, not because I think the movie needs to be factual when I know about it, it is just that when I know the altered facts it distracts me from the movie to be wondering why they changed such and such (could be for good reasons, bad reasons, or just sloppiness).
So for that reason, it is probably best not to put Pearl Harbor on Midway for you World War II movie, but if I don't know, I wouldn't care.
