Hi
New iPad is coming tomorrow and I need to start thinking how to move my movies and music etc to my new iPad. I am not syncing files with iTunes so what is the best way to transfer those files to my new iPad?

Can I just make a backup to my laptop restore from there? I have little over 100GB data on my iPad currently. Or can I somehow copy just the files I need to my new iPad?

Yes, you can in iTunes. That’s going to be your fastest and easiest option.

Just use iTunes.
