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.

What happens
Sunday Go to Meetin' Time is a 1936 American animated comedy short film directed by Isadore Freleng. The short was released on August 8, 1936. It is the 62nd film in the Merrie Melodies series. It was re-released as a "Blue Ribbon" reissue in 1944. The name of the short comes from the colloquial adjective "sunday-go-to-meeting", describing something appropriate for church or otherwise presentable. Because of the racial stereotypes of black people throughout the short, it is withheld from circulation, one of the "Censored Eleven" shorts. It was rejected by the British Board of Film Censors in 1936 and remains unreleased in the United Kingdom. It was banned in Australia and Germany. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
