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

Yu-Gi-Oh! The Dark Side of Dimensions (Japanese: 遊☆戯☆王 THE DARK SIDE OF DIMENSIONS(ザ・ダーク・サイド・オブ・ディメンションズ), Hepburn: Yū Gi Ō Za Dāku Saido Obu Dimenshonzu) is a 2016 Japanese animated science fantasy film written and directed by Satoshi Kuwabara, with Kazuki Takahashi and Masahiro Hikokubo as co-writers, based on the Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise by Takahashi. Produced by Studio Gallop and distributed by Toei Company, The Dark Side of Dimensions tells a new story that takes place after the events of the original Yu-Gi-Oh! storyline; specifically, it is set six months after the events of the original Yu-Gi-Oh! manga, and thus features some slight contradictions to the storyline of the anime adaptation. The film stars Shunsuke Kazama as the voice of Yugi Mutou and Kenjiro Tsuda as Seto Kaiba, alongside Hiroki Takahashi, Takayuki Kondo, Maki Satō, Rica Matsumoto, Junko Takeuchi, Kento Hayashi, Kana Hanazawa and Satoshi Hino. The Dark Side of Dimensions was released in Japan on April 23, 2016, in the United States and Canada on January 27, 2017, and in Australia on February 2, 2017. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
