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
Dangerous Game (also known as Snake Eyes) is a 1993 drama film directed by Abel Ferrara, written by Nicholas St. John, and starring Madonna, Harvey Keitel, and James Russo. The story follows a New York-based filmmaker directing a Hollywood drama about the volatile relationship between a married couple, while simultaneously straining his relationship with his own wife and causing the lines between reality and the film's production to blur. The film received generally negative reviews from critics, who praised the actors' performances but criticized it as self-indulgent and pretentious on the part of Ferrara. It bombed at the box office, making $1.2 million on a $10 million budget. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
