critique my reel (first reel) at DVinfo.net

This is the first time i have thrown together a reel of my work, and I still don't think it's the best way of showing what I've done. What are your thoughts on the way a demo reel should be put together? And what do you think I could do better with mine?
-Do you use the sound from the projects?
-Do you use parts of scenes or just single shots?
-Do you title your role in the project over the clip? (DP, Camera Op, etc.)

Thanks,

That last shot was really cool (I think the best in the reel). Very well choreographed.

Yeah the glide shots are cool.
