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.

A cartoon cowpoke gets into silly trouble in a Wild West setting. The short uses outdated stereotypes for its comedy.

My Little Buckaroo is a 1938 American animated comedy short film directed by Isadore Freleng. It was released on January 29, 1938. It is the 89th film in the Merrie Melodies series. It was re-released as a "Blue Ribbon" reissue in 1943 as My Little Buckeroo, rendering the original film and credits to be lost. It seldom airs on television due to its stereotyping of Mexican people. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
