Of the 1000 movies made today, most are musicals.

Of the 1000 movies made today, most are musicals.

I have seen it and I was wondering if of can be replaced with among and they mean the same here? Thank you so much as always.

Thank you so much and can I rewrite the original sentence as "Most of the 1000 movies made today are musicals." for the same meaning? That is so great. Please give me your thought again.
