...movies don't count, you have to read the books!!
Now, Wonder Woman, that depends on whether you seek entertainment or
immersion into a writer's vision. Actually, having read a bit about
Tolkien, I doubt the books would keep my interest. I find fantasy akin to spirituality; some speaks to me and some doesn't. Beyond spirituality, Tolkien was religious. That url I referenced in my last
post included this: 'The Lord of the Rings' is of course a fundamentally religious and Catholic work; unconsciously so at first,
but consciously in the revision," Tolkien wrote in a letter in 1953
to Robert Murray, a Jesuit priest.
Should I ever choose to spend a couple days of my precious time to read JRRT I have his books nearly at hand; nearby friends are as enamored of him as you. They call their place Hobbitwoods. But they have normal feet.
Sure was a lot of violence in the movie version. You are creating your own Shire, far better than merely fantasizing.
