The catalogue in 3D

The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

Hold Anything is a 1930 American comedy short film directed by Hugh Harman and Rudolf Ising. It is the third film in the Looney Tunes series featuring Bosko. It was released as early as August 9, 1930. It is loosely based on the lost film Hold Everything, one of whose songs, "Don't Hold Everything", features prominently in the cartoon. It was animated by Isadore "Friz" Freleng and Norman Blackburn. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
