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
Jarhead is a 2005 biographical war drama film based on the 2003 memoir of the same name by Anthony Swofford, chronicling his military service in the United States Marine Corps during the Persian Gulf War. Directed by Sam Mendes, the film stars Jake Gyllenhaal as Swofford with Jamie Foxx, Peter Sarsgaard, Lucas Black, and Chris Cooper. Universal Pictures released the film November 4, 2005 to mixed reviews from critics. It grossed $97 million at the box office against a $72 million budget. Named for the military slang among U.S. Marines, the film spawned a direct-to-video series of three subsequent films, none of which are related to the original and all of which invert its theme and perspectives.
