The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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

Kung Fu Cult Master (倚天屠龍記之魔教教主), also known as Kung Fu Master, Evil Cult, and Lord of the Wu Tang, is a 1993 Hong Kong wuxia film loosely adapted from the novel The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber by Jin Yong. Directed by Wong Jing, it featured fight choreography by Sammo Hung and starred Jet Li, Sharla Cheung, Chingmy Yau, and Gigi Lai. As the film performed poorly at the box office, the plans for a sequel were subsequently cancelled, and its cliffhanger ending was left unresolved. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
