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
A year after building a giant robot from Godzilla's skeleton to fight the monster, humans are told by tiny fairy priestesses that they must return the bones to the sea. While they argue about what to do, a new Godzilla and the giant moth Mothra both show up to battle the robot and each other in Tokyo.

What happens
Godzilla: Tokyo S.O.S. (ゴジラ×モスラ×メカゴジラ 東京SOS, Gojira Mosura Mekagojira Tōkyō Esu-Ō-Esu) is a 2003 Japanese kaiju film and the direct sequel to Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla (2002). The film was directed by Masaaki Tezuka with special effects by Eiichi Asada. Distributed by Toho and produced under their subsidiary Toho Pictures, it is the 28th film in the Godzilla franchise, the fifth film in the franchise's Millennium series, the 27th Godzilla film produced by Toho. Set one year after the events of the previous film, Godzilla: Tokyo S.O.S. follows the Shobijin request the Chujos that the first Godzilla's skeleton must return to the ocean due humanity's usage of Kiryu violating the natural orders, while Mothra and Kiryu attempt to prevent Godzilla from attacking Tokyo. Godzilla: Tokyo S.O.S. stars Noboru Kaneko, Miho Yoshioka, Mitsuki Koga, Masami Nagasawa, Chihiro Otsuka, Kou Takasugi, Hiroshi Koizumi (in his final film appearance), and Akira Nakao, with Tsutomu Kitagawa as Godzilla and Motokuni Nakagawa as Mechagodzilla/Kiryu (replaces Hirofumi Ishigaki from the previous film). This film also shares connections with the original 1961 Mothra film (with Koizumi reprises his role from the aforementioned film) and Space Amoeba (with Kamoebas makes a cameo as a corpse). Around its theatrical release, it was accompanied by a Hamtaro double feature, Hamtaro: Miracle in Aurora Valley. The following entry in the series, Godzilla: Final Wars, which is set in its own continuity, was released on December 4, 2004. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
