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

Monster High is an American animated web series based on the fashion doll line of the same name created by Mattel, the first adaptation since its launch, which originally aired on YouTube from May 5, 2010, to February 9, 2018. The series follows a group of teenage children of famous monsters in media and film who attend high school. Along with its feature-length direct-to-video films, this series serves as a platform to launch new doll characters. The web series finished its first run in 2015 with Volume 6, and got rebooted with a long-form 11-minute, 12-episode series order titled the Adventures of the Ghoul Squad. As of July 12, 2018, 189 web series episodes were produced and released – including the reboot series. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
