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

Wolfs is a 2024 American action comedy film written and directed by Jon Watts. Starring George Clooney, Brad Pitt, and Austin Abrams, it follows two nameless, professional fixers who are forced to work together on a job despite their preference to operate as lone wolves. Wolfs premiered out of competition at the Venice International Film Festival on September 1, 2024, to lukewarm reviews. It had a one-week limited theatrical release starting on September 20, 2024, it received mixed reviews from critics, and was released a week after on Apple TV+, where it became the streaming service's most-viewed film. Apple's decision to pivot the film to streaming despite pre-arranged agreements for a theatrical release led Watts not to move forward with a planned sequel. However, Sony Pictures (through Columbia Pictures) retains the distribution rights to the film for its video on demand release. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
