The Promotion: Kind of a Slacker
Steven Conrad, the writer/director of The Promotion, could have gone in a couple of different directions with his film, which centers on two guys battling for a job at a Chicago chain grocery store. He could have traipsed through the well-worn but awfully funny territory of office humor, replete with annoying coworkers and pesky in-jokes. Or he could have gone a bit deeper, meditating on success and what it means to be good.
Movie Preview: The Promotion
The Promotion stars some awesome names like John C. Reilly, Jenna Fischer and Seann William Scott and it looks hilarious. Yet I never heard of it at all until Cinematical posted a glowing review of the film after the South by Southwest screening.

The big moment we've all been waiting for is just about here: Jim Halpert and Pam Beesly will finally be married in an hour-long special episode of The Office tonight!

The Office: Best Lines of the Night
For last week's premiere of The Office, I recapped some of the hilarious quips from the employees at Dunder Mifflin.

Hopefully the writers are just saving their creative juices for the sure-to-be-killer Jim and Pam wedding episode.
