I wouldn't say trailers and stills are as useless as reviews, because media helps you shape your own opinion going in.

Why have even minor anxiety about what people have to say? I've never been any more or less excited by good or bad reviews. I've liked badly reviewed movies (SW Eps. III), and hated good reviewed movies (The Notebook). Sometimes reviewers agree with me. But they're agreeing with me; I don't look for the other way around.

This sort of thing makes reviews the overstated thing it is now.

Because it's more than if the movie got a good review or a bad review, it's what a knowledgeable critic says about the movie. Maybe you don't, but I have certain tastes and if I find a critic with similar tastes I kind of care about what they say. Plus a really good critic can open me up to things that I never noticed on my own. Sure i've had times where i've deviated from them and the critical consensus and that's why i'm still going to see this movie and i'm still excited, but I do see the value in certain critics.

Also I hardly think reviews are overstated seeing as most high grossing movies usually aren't critically praised.

I suppose I'm channeling my issues with game industry reviews.
