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
Shortcut to Happiness is a 2007 fantasy comedy film directed by Alec Baldwin, who stars alongside Jennifer Love Hewitt and Anthony Hopkins. The film is based on the Stephen Vincent Benét 1936 short story "The Devil and Daniel Webster." Shot in early 2001 in New York City, the film was plagued with financial difficulties and was shelved for several years. Yari Film Group eventually bought and released the film to theaters in 2007.
