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

Looney Tunes Platinum Collection: Volume 1 is a Blu-ray Disc and DVD box set by Warner Home Video. It was released on November 15, 2011. It contains 50 Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies cartoons and numerous supplements. A DVD version of the box set was released on July 3, 2012, but contained no extras. All but seven cartoons included on this volume — Lovelorn Leghorn, The Hasty Hare, Hare-Way to the Stars, Bill of Hare, A Witch's Tangled Hare, Feline Frame-Up, and Boyhood Daze — were previously restored as part of the Looney Tunes Golden Collection, the Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Academy Awards Animation Collection, or a Looney Tunes Super Stars DVD; of these seven, six are new to Blu-ray and DVD, while one (Boyhood Daze), had previously been included as an unrestored bonus cartoon on the Looney Tunes Golden Collection: Volume 6. A second volume was released in 2012, and was followed by a third volume in 2014. In June 2025, after being out of print for several years, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment put the Blu-Ray version of Platinum Collection: Volume 1 back into print without the elaborate packing or booklet, but containing all three discs. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
