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

What happens
A Sound of Thunder is a 2005 science fiction thriller film directed by Peter Hyams. It is based on the 1952 short story of the same name by Ray Bradbury. The film stars Edward Burns, Catherine McCormack, and Ben Kingsley. It follows "time tourists" who accidentally interfere too much with the past, completely altering the present. A Sound of Thunder was released in the United States on September 2, 2005, by Warner Bros. Pictures. The film failed at the box office, earning only $11.8 million against a production budget of $80 million, and was largely panned by critics, who criticized its cheap special effects, uninvolved performances, scientific errors and choppy logic, and the lack of faithfulness to the source material.
