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

Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle is a 2003 American spy action comedy film directed by McG and written by John August, and Cormac and Marianne Wibberley. It is the sequel to 2000's Charlie's Angels and the second installment in the Charlie's Angels film series, which is a continuation of the story that began with the television series of the same name by Ivan Goff and Ben Roberts. In an ensemble cast, Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu reprise their roles as the three women working for the Townsend Agency. Crispin Glover, Matt LeBlanc and Luke Wilson also reprise their roles from the first film in addition to Bill Murray appearing through archival footage with Bernie Mac, Demi Moore, Justin Theroux and Robert Patrick joining the cast. Jaclyn Smith reprised her role as Kelly Garrett from the original series for a cameo appearance. It was John Forsythe's final film role before he retired from acting in 2006 and death in 2010 respectively. It was released in the United States on June 27, 2003, by Sony Pictures Releasing under its Columbia Pictures label and was number one at the box office for that weekend, also making a worldwide total of $259 million. Like its predecessor, the film received mixed reviews from critics, with praise for the performances of Diaz, Barrymore, Liu, and Moore, but criticism aimed at the "bland plot and lack of sense".
