Specifically, Robert Zemeckis > Peter Jackson. the BttF trilogy was masterfully executed with great plot, pacing, and incredible attention to detail (down to things like e.g. “Twin Pines Mall” becoming “Lone Pine Mall” because Marty ran over one of Old Man Peabody’s pines).

My brother in Manwe, you kind of lost some credibility calling Tom Bombadil a major plot point.
