Here’s a description of the new film, which is scheduled to open on June 6, 2008.
Oscar-nominated actor John C. Reilly (“Chicago,” “Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby”) and Seann William Scott (“American Pie”) lend their deft comedic touch to the story of two mid-level Chicago supermarket employees – Doug and Richard (a dubious new guy from Canada) – who compete ruthlessly for a coveted managerial post.
Doug and Richard couldn’t be more different, but going head to head in a contest of wits and will reveals how they have more in common than they thought. The duo battle toward a hilarious final showdown that will leave you guessing until the very end. The film is the directorial debut of Steve Conrad (writer of “The Pursuit of Happyness”).

I THINK SEANN WILLIAM SCOTT IS FUNNIER BECAUSE HE DOES GREAT PHYSICAL COMDEY,IF LOOK BACK AT THE RUNDOWN AND MR. WOODCOCK YOU WOULD SEE WHAT I MEAN.
John C. Reilly
I’m Vickie. I’ve been a John C. Reilly fan since Sydney (aka Hard Eight). He’d been around before then but I hadn’t noticed him. He’s just as good at drama as he is in a comedy. Why? Because he’s a great actor!
John C Reilly
He’s a good old boy who’s comedy still reaches those of my, and younger generations. Shake and bake will never die any time soon!!
Justin Price
John C. Reily… Because
John C. Reily… Because when he was a child he though they named the John Hancock building after him. - ha ha
My name is Alison Barnes
John C Reilly
Simply put, John C Reilly is just amazing and is the funnier one. Sean William Scott has his moments, but Reilly take the win on this one
The Promotion
This is going to be hilarious. I can’t wait.
Who is funnier at all times?
Well, Scott is a classic clown. He will take the cup on this one assuredly.
John C. Reilly Rocks
This is a no hands down contest! John C. Reilly is such a multifaceted actor. He oozes talent from every pore. Poor ol’ Seann is a one-trick pony.
The Promotion
This is Javier Lopez and ummm.. John C Reilly, he’s just so witty when it comes to dialouge! He just makes the movie alot more interesting.
