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
Jiminy Cricket finds a young girl feeling sorry for herself. To cheer her up, he tells two stories. One is about a circus bear who escapes into the wild. The other is about Mickey Mouse and his friends climbing a giant beanstalk.

What happens
Fun and Fancy Free, formerly known as Fun & Fancy Free, is a 1947 American animated musical fantasy anthology film produced by Walt Disney and Ben Sharpsteen and released on September 27, 1947, by RKO Radio Pictures. The film is a compilation of two stories: Bongo, narrated by Dinah Shore and loosely based on the short story "Little Bear Bongo" by Sinclair Lewis; and Mickey and the Beanstalk, narrated by Edgar Bergen and based on the "Jack and the Beanstalk" fairy tale. Though the film is primarily animated, it also uses live-action segments starring Bergen to join its two stories. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
