What's the problem here, exactly?

Is it acceptable to have a LOTR/Tolkien-style introduction where you establish a few of the basics regarding races/setting/etc beforehand, or is too overdone and/or identifiably Tolkien?

Asking mainly in reference to large works, whose worldbuilding would otherwise take up huge parts of the actual story.

This has new age connotations since it refers to reincarnation and that the speaker has had previous lives...interesting...

I want to read a book where a guy gets it really awesome all the time, and I can live out my fantasies through him.
