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

Red Line is a 1996 American action film written and directed by John Sjogren, and starring Chad McQueen, Dom DeLuise, Michael Madsen, Roxana Zal, Jan-Michael Vincent and Corey Feldman. Immediately prior to filming, Jan-Michael Vincent was in a severe car accident that left his face badly scarred. He can be seen still wearing his hospital ID wrist bracelet in the movie. It was written into the script that Vincent's character had been in a car accident, and he needed new shocks from McQueen's character, a mechanic. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
