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

Trick or Tweet is a 1959 Warner Bros. Merrie Melodies animated cartoon directed by Friz Freleng. The short was released on March 21, 1959, and stars Tweety and Sylvester. Tweety and Sylvester are voiced by Mel Blanc, and Sam, the orange-red cat acting as Sylvester's rival, is performed by an uncredited Daws Butler, doing a voice reminiscent of Frank Fontaine's "John L.C. Sivoney" from The Jack Benny Program and "Crazy Guggenheim" from The Jackie Gleason Show. The title is a play on the phrase "Trick or treat". (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
