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
Hide and Seek is a 2005 American psychological thriller film directed by John Polson and starring Robert De Niro and Dakota Fanning. Albert Hughes was initially signed to direct, making his debut as a solo director, but he left due to creative differences. The film opened in the United States on January 28, 2005, and grossed $127 million worldwide. Rotten Tomatoes cited praise for De Niro and Fanning for their performances, although its consensus called the film "derivative, illogical and somewhat silly". Fanning received an MTV Movie Award for Best Frightened Performance in 2005. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
