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
The misfit cadets from the first film graduate and are assigned to a troubled precinct. Captain Lassard asks them to clean up a crime-ridden neighborhood that is being terrorized by a rowdy gang.

What happens
Police Academy 2: Their First Assignment is a 1985 American comedy film directed by Jerry Paris. It is the second installment in the Police Academy franchise and the sequel to Police Academy. Many actors who were in the first film return to reprise their roles. Steve Guttenberg, as Officer Carey Mahoney, the class clown; former American football player Bubba Smith returns as the colossal Moses Hightower; Marion Ramsey is featured again as the soft-spoken Laverne Hooks; David Graf returns as gun-crazy Officer Eugene Tackleberry; Michael Winslow returns as sound effects master Officer Larvell Jones and veteran actor George Gaynes returns as Commandant Eric Lassard. This is the only film in the franchise in which Leslie Easterbrook did not appear as Callahan. New faces in Police Academy 2 include Howard Hesseman as Captain Pete Lassard (the brother of Police Academy commandant Eric Lassard); Bobcat Goldthwait as Zed McGlunk, the leader of "The Scullions", an obnoxious gang; Art Metrano as Lt. Ernie Mauser; Peter Van Norden as slobbish police dog Officer Vinnie Schtulman; Tim Kazurinsky as hapless business owner Carl Sweetchuck; and Lance Kinsey as Sgt. Carl Proctor. In the film, the Police Academy cadets have graduated and are assigned to the worst precinct in town, where they have to help Captain Pete Lassard fight Zed's gang. The film was followed by Police Academy 3: Back in Training (1986). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
