Silverlode's post should be pretty much the last word on this thread.

Peter Jackson & Co. (and all of us as well) owe all the respect in the world to the creative genius of JRRT Tolkien and the literary efforts of Christopher Tolkien and the Tolkien Estate. Without them there would be no books, and without the books PJ would have no movies.
Christopher Tolkien and the Estate "owe" nobody anything. CT understands his father's work in a way PJ can only dream he does, and it's base presumption to suggest that it's CT who should be meek and grateful.
