"Creating movies which don't exist" is the same as "creating movies".

"Additionally, one can read any book ever written, any book that will be written at some point and books that were planned for writing that were not, as well as any book that could possibly be written." [0]
Infinite monkeys on infinite typewriters can produce a work of Shakespeare.

Or infinite AI creating infinite movies can create Avatar.
I remember there being an archive that indexed a random stream of numbers from which you could download a range of random bytes, the idea being theoretically everything can be found within the dataset. I think it was done in protest of copyright or something like that.
I can't remember the name of it for the life of me.
