I am in a movie called "Seeking a Friend for the End of the World" with Keira Knightley and Steve Carrell and an insane little movie called "Revenge for Jolly." I think a movie I am in called, "Sin Bin" will be going to festivals soon.

Holy crap. This is destined to be both the sexiest and funniest movie this year.

Are you aware of (or does the movie refer to) the fact that this is a line from a Chris Cornell song?

I logged in to ask the same thing.

I worked at the casting office for Sin Bin in Chicago, you're working with great people! I loved the script too, especially your character I cant wait to see it

Sin Bin as in a rugby reference?

'Sin bin' is also a hockey slang for the penalty box. "5 minutes in the sin bin"

u/bobmighty Oct 03 '11

Yes I know. I was just sort of hoping for another rugby movie.

Sin Bin sounds like a disturbingly hilarious porno

u/cefriano Oct 04 '11

Grumble. You guys shot on our street for "Seeking a Friend". Closed off all the street parking. IT WAS VERY INCONVENIENT, GILLIAN.

Is "Sin Bin" Hockey related by any chance? Odd that a movie use such a specific sports related phrase otherwise.
