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
A pair of magpies find a nest near a farmer's window and make a huge racket. The farmer and his dog try to get rid of the noisy birds, but the magpies outsmart them and even rally the other magpies nearby. Eventually the farmer and his dog are driven out of their house.

What happens
est le premier cartoon de la série Heckle et Jeckle. Un couple de pies à la recherche d'un endroit trouve finalement un nid juste en face de la fenêtre de la maison d'un fermier qui se repose en compagnie de son chien. Mais les deux oiseaux font un vacarme de tous les diables. Le fermier envoie son chien y mettre bon ordre mais les deux volatiles vont lui donner du fil à retordre. Le fermier décide de prendre son fusil et de faire sortir les oiseaux de sa propriété. Il ne réussit qu'à agacer une colonie de pies voisines qui aident les deux oiseaux de mauvais augure à prendre possession de la maison. Le fermier et son chien sont finalement chassés de leur domicile. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
