The problem is that averaging hue makes no sense at all because hue is not a longest scale.

If you take a red poster (0) and a blue poster (240), it averages to green. Or take red (0) and red (359), averaging to cyan (180).

The average of 0° and 359° is obviously 359.5°.

it's a radial scale.

By that logic, the average of red and cyan is both purple and lime. Still useless.

Not if there is a clear trend. If most movie posters are blue, three average will be blue.

But i agree, it is useless if there is no clear trend.
