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
My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games (or simply Friendship Games) is a 2015 animated musical sports fantasy film directed by Ishi Rudell, written by Josh Haber, and produced by DHX Media Vancouver for Hasbro Studios. The sequel to My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Rainbow Rocks (2014), it is the third installment in Hasbro's Equestria Girls franchise, which serves as a spin-off to the 2010 relaunch of My Little Pony. Like the previous Equestria Girls films, Friendship Games re-envisions the main characters of the parent franchise, normally ponies, as teenage humanoid characters in a high school setting. Set during the events of the fifth-season finale of Friendship Is Magic, the film centers around a sports competition between the students of Canterlot High School and their rivals at Crystal Prep Academy – one of whom is Twilight Sparkle's parallel universe counterpart, who has been investigating the magical activity around Canterlot High. My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games had no limited theatrical release in the United States and Canada, apart from a premiere event at Angelika Film Center on September 17, 2015. The film aired on Discovery Family (a joint venture between Discovery Communications and Hasbro) on September 26, with a home media release on October 13 that year by Shout! Factory. It also had a limited theatrical run in the United Kingdom, Mexico and Australia beginning in October 2015. A fourth film, Legend of Everfree, was released on Netflix in 2016.
