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.
How it feels
This is a Warner Bros. cartoon that parodies Little Red Riding Hood. A hungry wolf tries to trick a little girl with a red hood, but gets outsmarted by her and a hunter who looks like an early version of Elmer Fudd.

What happens
Little Red Walking Hood is a 1937 American animated comedy short film directed by Fred Avery. The short was released on November 6, 1937. It is the 85th film in the Merrie Melodies series and features the first appearance of an early character who later became Elmer Fudd. The cartoon is a parody of the fairy tale "Little Red Riding Hood" with Avery's trademark brand of humor; it serves as a spiritual predecessor to Avery's cartoons starring Red at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. It was re-released as a "Blue Ribbon" reissue in 1946. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
