Not really a hot take, the Jackson films are almost universally considered the best adaptation of any Tolkien work. The only mainstream debate is whether its LotR trilogy > Hobbit trilogy > RoP series or LotR trilogy > RoP series > Hobbit trilogy.

Oh okay that's less common. Most people find the trilogy fairly even in quality, with the 2nd being best regarded if anything.
The Jackson films were more or less produced simultaneously as a single mega-film and divided into 3 so it's not that the first one had more time to be made, if anything you could say it had less in terms of post production and reshoot type stuff.
