I don't doubt that played a factor, but I'm not convinced it was the only factor, because lack of time and poor health are pretty major issues you simply cannot discount. I'm also not necessarily convinced he had unlimited control. He's not funding the movie out of pocket, you know. He probably had less studio interference this time around, but no big blockbuster movie has ZERO studio interference or oversight.

I'm not saying it was the only factor either. However, from everything I've seen, I'm really convinced that the more time PJ had, the worse it would be. All the BTS stuff shows how he kept tinkering and tinkering, and it didn't make it better. He just couldn't stop himself. He actually works best with a deadline. Maybe having some time to work out Azog would've helped but PJ was firmly set on fight gags for the battles. You're only going to get more gags with more time, not a coherent fight.

Also, from what I've read, PJ had much more clout this time. Obviously, it wasn't 100%, but it was significant. People trusted him because of his success with LOTR. They gave him a lot of leeway, and he used it for that HDR and 3 movies, etc. Those were his decisions and they didn't need to happen. They caused a lot of his problems.
