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

Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist is a British martial arts web series developed by Joey Ansah and Christian Howard. Based on Capcom's Street Fighter video game series, it is the third live-action adaptation of the game franchise. The story focuses on Ryu and Ken as they uncover the past of their master, Gouken, and learn the secrets of their dark art, Ansatsuken. The web series was released on Machinima's YouTube channel on 23 May 2014. It was recompiled into a 6-episode television series and film, with IFC Films releasing the film on 7 January 2015. A sequel series, Street Fighter: World Warrior, which would have seen Ryu and Ken come into conflict with M. Bison and Shadaloo, was in development, but was eventually scrapped in favour of Street Fighter: Resurrection, which served as a tie-in to Street Fighter V. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
