FFC had to make decisions on film content regardless of how much time he had to complete it. Otherwise, it would become an HBO series. Remember, it was already 4 hours.
Funny thing is, today it
would be an HBO series. When you have that much material to cover, it just makes more sense to take your time with it.
I think there's something to what SC posted. The film
was rushed. But then, so was Part III, and that was an almost complete disaster. So in my opinion, GF 2 was the greatest "rushed" film of all time
.
