There’s a lot wrong with Art School Confidential, but one nagging detail is Ethan Suplee’s fat, slovenly FilmThreat.com-reading character. Halfway through the movie, he shows his student film on an AVID machine. Much ‘student film’ humor commences, as a bucket of chocolate syrup is dumped into an empty swimming pool. Two mixed metaphors, maybe mixed clichés, but what’s truly annoying is that if you want to give a real look at snobbery as it operates today, you need a new straw man. (...)
