Ned's fake movie library

A collection of 1,000 empty movie files, with NFO files, poster, and fanart. Various movies from different years, including sequels/sets, remakes, movies named the same but unrelated, various genres, and so on. Useful for testing things like library scanning speed, library navigation, filtering, etc.
