I think it's also a problem of source material. While The Hobbit will always be a classic, I don't think it lends itself well to being a film, and definitely not three films. With LOTR, Jackson had to cut material, and most of the original stuff he did was just trying help continuity and pacing to make up for that fact. And cutting material is generally much, much better than adding it. The Hobbit felt slow precisely because he was trying to stretch them into three films. LOTR was much more action and plot packed.

I don't think his adaptations of LOTR were completely flawless, but overall, I do think they were spectacular films, to the point where I honestly prefer their pacing far over Tolkien's.

Jackson should not be allowed to write original "Middle-earthy" dialogue though. Pretty much everything that wasn't Tolkien's, or adapted from Tolkien's, makes me cringe.
