Sure, everyone likes movie quotes. I like them a little more than the average fella. Alonzo Mosley is a man after my own heart.

He's pieced together 100 different movie clips into an amazing collection. Starting at 100, Dialogue from each movie references a number, starting at 100 with Night of the Living Dead and concluding with the famous line from The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.

Take a gander at the video here:

Yes, yes, the video is from 2007 but thanks to Digg, it was the first time I'd come across it. Odds are that it's new to you as well.

98. Dead Poet's Society
