The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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

The Thundering Trail is a 1951 American Western film produced and directed by Ron Ormond and starring Lash LaRue and Al "Fuzzy" St. John. It was the ninth of LaRue's films for Ormond's Western Adventures Productions and the third to be released by Howco, a distribution company owned by Ormond and drive-in theater owners Joy N. Houck and J. Francis White. The screenplay was cowritten by Ormond's wife June Carr and associate producer Ira S. Webb. The film features a large amount of footage from previous Ormond/LaRue Westerns. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
