The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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

Vertigo 2005: Live from Chicago (sometimes titled Vertigo '05: Live from Chicago) is a concert film by Irish rock band U2. It was filmed from 9–10 May 2005 at the United Center in Chicago, Illinois, during the band's Vertigo Tour. The film was released on DVD later that year on 14 November through Island Records in most parts of the world, and on 15 November through Interscope Records in the United States. The DVD was released as a one-disc standard edition and a deluxe edition with a second disc featuring bonus material and a documentary. It was the first of three concert films from the tour. The video was a worldwide success, topping the music DVD charts in 11 countries. It has been certified diamond in Brazil and France; sextuple-platinum in Australia; triple-platinum in New Zealand, Portugal, and Spain; and double-platinum in Mexico and the United Kingdom. As of January 2007, it was the band's best-selling DVD, according to Nielsen SoundScan, selling over 285,000 copies in the United States. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
