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
Beauty and the Beast is a 2017 American musical romantic fantasy film. It is a live-action/CGI remake of the 1991 Disney animated film, itself an adaptation of the fairy tale. Produced by Walt Disney Pictures and Mandeville Films, the film was directed by Bill Condon and written by Stephen Chbosky and Evan Spiliotopoulos. Emma Watson and Dan Stevens respectively star as Belle and the Beast, with Luke Evans, Kevin Kline, Josh Gad, Ewan McGregor, Stanley Tucci, Audra McDonald, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Ian McKellen, and Emma Thompson in supporting roles. The film was first announced in April 2014, with Condon attached to direct. The cast members signed on between January and April 2015, and filming took place primarily at Shepperton Studios in England from May to August of that year. The estimated production budget was around $255 million. Beauty and the Beast had its world premiere at Spencer House in London on February 23, 2017, followed by its American premiere at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood on March 2. It was released theatrically in the United States on March 17. The film received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised its cast, songs, and visual detail. It grossed $1.27 billion, becoming the second-highest-grossing film of 2017 and the tenth-highest-grossing film of all time. Amongst Disney's live-action adaptation remakes, it is the second-highest-grossing film to date.
