i moved the article about the reel type of dance to reel (dance) because i belive that the dance is not the primary meaning of the word (and yes i had to change a hell of a lot of links to piped links.) no doubt people will tell me if i screwed anything up
I would like to see this moved to reel (object) and the other meaning moved back here. It is evident from the links to the two pages that the reel (dance/music) is overwhelmingly the more used definition on Wikipedia. zoney ♣ talk 23:05, 9 Nov 2004 (UTC)
This may be a dumb question, but are 35mm prints really shipped on reels that only hold twelve minutes of film? I was a projectionist for a few years, and we almost never got movies that took up more than six or seven reels, yet nearly all of our movies were longer than 72 or 84 minutes. (The octagonal shipping cans held three or four reels, and very few movies, if any, came in more than two cans.) Rocky Horror came on six reels, and that's 98 minutes. My estimate was always an upper bound of twenty minutes per reel, and film travels at about one mile per hour, so in my estimation a reel held about 1600 feet. -- Jere7my 20:25, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
Is not the use of excerpts for show reels considered "fair use" straightforwardly?
Then this part should be reworded: "While the usage of video excerpts on such showreels can be regarded as a breach of copyright,..."

Should Film reel redirect to here? (it currently redirects to Developing tank). Thanks. -- Quiddity ( talk) 01:45, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
There are a number of types of reels mentioned but without photographs.
I propose that Showreel (actors) be merged into this article. The article content at Showreel (actors) is essentially duplicated here, and the material would be better here. wia ( talk) 21:24, 11 February 2015 (UTC)
