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

A five-minute prologue to the 2022 film Jurassic World Dominion was released in 2021, initially as an IMAX-exclusive preview and later as an online short film. It is the second live-action short film in the Jurassic Park franchise, following Battle at Big Rock (2019). The prologue includes a prehistoric segment set during the Cretaceous, depicting various dinosaurs in their natural habitats. The sequence was shot on the island of Socotra, part of Yemen. The prologue also includes a modern-day sequence – filmed in England and set in California – in which a Tyrannosaurus rex terrorizes a drive-in theater while evading capture. The footage debuted in June 2021, as a promotional preview attached to IMAX showings of F9. Director Colin Trevorrow had shot the footage to serve as the first five minutes of Jurassic World Dominion, before cutting it from the final film due to time constraints. The footage was released online on November 23, 2021, to promote the main film ahead of its theatrical release on June 10, 2022. The footage has since been restored in the film's extended edition, released to home media on August 16, 2022. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
