I got obsessed with LOTR too at one point. I think its normal because it provides a psychological escape from this world when things get rough or people let you down. You can imagine a more pleasant world how you want it with peace and justice etc which doesn't exist in this world. I think it is a coping strategy and a form of escape to retreat into a safe fantasy world where you can control things and nothing can hurt you. It's normal as long as you can still relate to people and care about people in the real world.
