I don't care what you use it for but the word "Reel" is often use instead of the world "Real" in a slang kind of a way.

I have a domain with the word "reel" in it that I've been afraid to use. I once read that Reel.com sued several sites with the word reel in them. Reel.com is owned by the same people as HollywoodVideo.com, and if I recall there is even a GFYer who lost a domain to them with the word Hollywood in it or something.

The Reel.com lawsuits were from the earlier days of the internet though. I'm thinking 1998 or so.

Here is one from 2000 where Reel.com sued ReelUniverse.com...

http://www.guidetohometheater.com/news/10645/

"Through Reel.com's long and extensive usage and promotion of REEL marks in connection with the sale of movies on the Internet, these marks have become strongly identified by the consuming public with our client. As a result of these considerable efforts, Reel.com has developed valuable goodwill, as well as strong and enforceable rights, in the REEL marks."

I'd like to know how that ended.

Yeah, but that's where "reel" means "reel". In this case it means "REAL" spelled in slang.
