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
Nope (stylized in all caps) is a 2022 American science fiction horror film written, directed, and produced by Jordan Peele. It stars Daniel Kaluuya, Keke Palmer, Steven Yeun, Michael Wincott, Brandon Perea, and Keith David. In the film, horse-wrangling siblings Otis "OJ" Jr. (Kaluuya) and Emerald (Palmer) attempt to capture evidence of an unidentified flying object in Agua Dulce, California. Peele announced Nope, which is his third directorial film, in November 2020. He cited King Kong (1933), The Wizard of Oz (1939), Jaws (1975), Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977), Jurassic Park (1993) and Signs (2002) as his main inspirations. Palmer and Kaluuya joined in February 2021. Yeun was cast the next month, and Peele revealed the title in July 2021. Filming began in June 2021 in Los Angeles County, and wrapped that November. Nope was produced under Peele and Ian Cooper's Monkeypaw Productions banner. Nope premiered at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles on July 18, 2022, and was theatrically released in the United States on July 22, 2022, by Universal Pictures. It grossed $172 million worldwide, and received positive reviews for its ambition, performances, cinematography, themes, visual style, score, and Peele's direction. It was also named one of the top ten films of 2022 by the American Film Institute. Since its release, Nope has been included in lists of the best science fiction films of the 21st century and is considered one of the best science fiction films of all time.
