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
The Dark Half is a 1993 American supernatural horror film written and directed by George A. Romero, and starring Timothy Hutton, Amy Madigan, Michael Rooker, Julie Harris, and Royal Dano in his final film role. An adaptation of the 1989 novel of the same name by Stephen King, the film follows a writer whose personal and writerly alter ego begins to commit a series of murders. Hutton's performance was commended but overall reviews were mixed, and The Dark Half was a box office disappointment. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
