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.
How it feels
An out-of-work actor poses as a superhero for a publicity stunt. He accidentally becomes a real hero when he stops a crime, and must deal with the consequences of his newfound fame.
