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.
How it feels

What happens
Showtime is a 2002 American buddy cop action comedy film directed by Tom Dey. The film stars Robert De Niro and Eddie Murphy alongside Rene Russo, William Shatner, Pedro Damian and De Niro's real-life daughter Drena De Niro. It was released in the United States on March 15, 2002, by Warner Bros. Pictures. It received generally negative reviews, with critics lamenting its lackluster humor and poor attempt to satirize the buddy-cop genre, and was a box office bomb, grossing $77.7 million against an $85 million budget. It received two nominations at the 23rd Golden Raspberry Awards: Worst Actor (for Murphy), and Worst Screen Combo (for Murphy and De Niro). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
