It's very different in terms of magic

This kind of thing worked well in HP because the movies had long established the wand magic, so even no fans expected it. No such standard of magic has been established in LOTR, it's much more elemental in nature. Now, that said, There's various ways you could assault a palce like Dol-Guldur with magic, earthquakes, etc. However, we're not talking an assault by ground troops since I don't think there's going to be any orcs there. In fact, if I were a garrison in a tumble-down ruin and I saw those wizards showing up, I'd head for the forest.
So, it remains to be seen what they will do. Saruman and Gandalf are really the only wizards that have used much offensive magic either book or film.

I think part of the problem is that Peter has not had a great penchant for visualizing

It depends on the scene. I have said, that regarding the pinecones, I would have liked to have seen more blue
