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 series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens
The Godfather Saga[a] is a 1977 American television miniseries that combines The Godfather and The Godfather Part II into a single unified work. It originally aired on NBC over four consecutive nights (one three-hour episode and three two-hour episodes) in November 1977. The television version was the basis for a few subsequent video releases. A shorter version of the miniseries was released in 1981. In 1990 a new release added additional scenes and reincorporated much of the footage added for television. Following the release of The Godfather Part III in 1990, a third unified version was released to video in 1992. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
