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

Jack-Jack Attack is a 2005 American animated short film written and directed by Brad Bird and produced by Pixar Animation Studios. It is tied into and included on the DVD release of The Incredibles. The idea for this short came from an idea for a scene originally considered for inclusion in The Incredibles; it was cut from the feature and subsequently expanded into this short. The short revolves around the situations between Jack-Jack and his babysitter Kari McKeen (who was hired by Violet and Dash to watch Jack-Jack) during the events of the main film.
