Frank Capra can direct THE HOBBIT part one.
H. B. Warner can play Gandalf.
Gary Cooper can play Bard. Edward Arnold as the Goblin King.

William Wyler can then do THE HOBBIT part two "The Best Trip of Out Lives".
Nothing from the actual book but it would show the emotional toll the episode took upon all those involved once they tried to return to the normalcy of home.

D. W. Griffith can do a silent version.
No CGI allowed - just a real cast of ten thousand on sets the size of Manhattan.

Or maybe David Lean could helm it.
Lots of boring parts but it would be as pretty as any great painting in the Tate Museum.

Or what about John Ford?
The big battle scene could be in Monument Valley out there in Arizona and Utah.
His brother Francis would make a wonderful Gandalf. And Ford got more out of John Wayne than any other director- Wayne for Bard.

All these guys have way more talent than the Spidey guy.
