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

Steal Wool is a 1957 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes cartoon directed by Chuck Jones. The short was released on June 8, 1957, and stars Ralph Wolf and Sam Sheepdog. Mel Blanc provided for the voices of all the characters in this cartoon; however, like all Ralph Wolf and Sam Sheepdog shorts, this short is mostly composed of visual gags. This is the fourth short featuring Ralph Wolf and Sam Sheepdog. The title is a play on steel wool. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
