Yes I was/am using this:-
http://www.ebay.com/sch/sis.html?_nkw=Watson+35mm+Bulk+Film+Loader+Model+100+
Many moons ago I bought some B/W movie film (well I think it was as it was about 100ft in a can)

I am using exclusively B&W bulk film only , loader works well have care about filling casette. Put on table a factory film and look which side is emulsion , other ways easy to fill to wrong direction.Compressed air also helps to clean cassettes before fill them. I have 20-30 cassettes usually I fill them at same time and put them after to freezer.

Teo, I started to do it only recently, but it's very easy.
If you have a changing bag you'll be able to load the bulk film into the bulk loader also in daylight.
@David: great idea your videos, thanks for sharing!

what is meant by "big rolls"? 30,5m (100ft) roll is a standard which fits into normal bulk loaders and means no problem. however you can buy 400ft, 1000ft or even longer rolls of cinematography film and that is a challenge for butterfingers like me:)

I use various size bulk rolls, mostly 30m but also 153m (Pan F 50) and 120m (Kodak Vision2 movie films). I just load by hand in the dark, I find it pretty easy, just takes a little practice. I use reloadable canisters mostly but sometimes I use old recycled canisters to be able to take advantage of their DX codes, I have several compact cameras that set film speed only by DX.
