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

Rebel Rabbit is a 1949 Warner Bros. Merrie Melodies animated short directed by Robert McKimson. The cartoon was released on April 9, 1949, and features Bugs Bunny. In the film, Bugs finds the insignificant bounty on rabbits to be offensive. He is informed that rabbits are considered harmless. He sets out to prove how dangerous rabbits can be, by vandalizing monuments and landmarks throughout the United States. He is soon targeted by the entire War Department. He starts serving a prison sentence in Alcatraz Island, while trying to figure out whether he overdid it. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
