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

Gen-X Cops (Chinese: 特警新人類) is a 1999 Hong Kong action comedy film written, produced and directed by Benny Chan. The film stars Nicholas Tse, Stephen Fung and Sam Lee. South China Morning Post has called the film a "classic example" of "Hong Kong's new-style '90s action films that featured young actors, more special effects...and sub-par scripts". The film went straight to rental release in the United States. It was followed by a sequel called Gen-Y Cops, also directed by Chan. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
