100 i don't think so

- Reservoir Dogs

- Bridget Jones 1 & 2
- Princess Diaries 1& 2
- Pride and Prejudice BBC
- The Shawshank Redemption
- The Little Mermaid (Disney)

in case you imagine those are tremendous video clips, then you definately dont know a few thing about tremendous video clips.... how can someone have a set without video clips from Spielberg and Scorsese. From Spielberg you want to get E.T., Jaws, Schindler's list, from Scorsese, the Departed, Goodfellas, others like the Godfather, Pulp Fiction, L.A unique, Gladiator, Unforgiven, dirty Harry

How about your favorite "Shiendler's List" and "Forrest Gump"?
I would personally add all Kevin Costner's "Dance with the Wolves", "Open Range" and "The Postman", all Sylvester Stallone's "Rocky" and "Rambo", and all Steven Spielberg's "Jurassic Park"
