It didn't really bother me much in LotR, although I noticed it a little, but in The Hobbit he would write something like this:
So Bilbo was captured by the goblins who held him and did terrible things to him for many days. Ultimately he escaped and found a magic ring that would later prove to be of great importance. As you shall see. Here is how it happened. <Insert 50 pages describing that plot in much greater detail>
It drove me crazy!
