Whether he knew it or not, Tolkien was writing a trilogy.

So, this guy's beef is that the movie doesn't keep true to the pacing of the trilogy Tolkien didn't know he was writing, and didn't like when he saw it published?

Sounds objective and well-reasoned to me.

The divisions between the books are artificial. Tolkien wanted the story published in one volume -- the publishers insisted on three. Moving the end of the Two Towers to the beginning of the third film is not a departure from Tolkien's story.
