PCU was a very interesting movie that we watched in class recently. It was funny to me how college life is perceived by many. Most part of the movie showed most students either partying, doing drugs, or just in their rooms not doing any work. It is funny because college is not even like that at all. College has become too expensive for one to come to school and just lounge around. There were many logical fallacies in this movie but there was one that really caught my attention. It is a scene in which the leader of the Pit shows no respect to the president of the school when she enters the house. When she is talking to him he just waves her off and ignores her when she tells him to put his cigarette out. This adds to the argument that the movie is trying to make by saying that college is just a big party and the students are not respectful. This would definitely be a fallacy because it is not true at all.

PCU was VERY funny and it really was interesting to watch a movie that was supposed to be a portrayal of us! It's true that the movie was not a completely true depiction of how college is. You're definitely right about college being too expensive to just come here to party and do absolutely nothing. But I didn't see where you specifically named the fallacy you were identifying.
