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
Alien: Romulus is a 2024 science fiction horror film directed by Fede Álvarez, who co-wrote the script with Rodo Sayagues. It is the seventh installment in the Alien film series, set between the events of Alien (1979) and Aliens (1986). The film stars Cailee Spaeny, David Jonsson, Archie Renaux, Isabela Merced, Spike Fearn, and Aileen Wu as six downtrodden young space colonists who encounter hostile creatures while scavenging a derelict space station from which they plan to steal cryostasis chambers to navigate to another planet. At CinemaCon in April 2019, 20th Century Studios (then-named 20th Century Fox) announced plans to produce future Alien films. Álvarez was attached as director in March 2022, and Spaeny joined as the lead later that year. Filming took place from March to July 2023. Alien: Romulus premiered in Los Angeles on August 12, 2024, and was theatrically released in the United States by 20th Century Studios on August 16. The film grossed $350.9 million worldwide and received generally positive reviews from critics. It received several industry nominations, namely for its technical aspects, including an Academy Award nomination for Best Visual Effects. A sequel is in development. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
