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
Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl is a 2024 British animated comedy film produced by Aardman Animations for the BBC and Netflix. It was directed by Nick Park and Merlin Crossingham and written by Park and Mark Burton. It is the sixth Wallace & Gromit film and the second feature-length film following The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005). In the film, Wallace's latest invention is hijacked by Feathers McGraw. Ben Whitehead voices Wallace in his first feature-length appearance following the death of the original actor, Peter Sallis, in 2017. The remaining voice cast consists of Peter Kay, Lauren Patel, and Reece Shearsmith. Owing to difficulties with working with DreamWorks Animation during the production of The Curse of the Were-Rabbit, Park was hesitant to direct another feature-length Wallace & Gromit film for several years. Vengeance Most Fowl, which was announced in January 2022 was conceived as another 30-minute short, before expanding into a feature. The score was composed by Lorne Balfe and Julian Nott. Vengeance Most Fowl premiered at the American Film Institute on 27 October 2024. It was broadcast on BBC One and BBC iPlayer on 25 December in the UK and released on Netflix internationally on 3 January 2025. After 28 days, it became the BBC's most watched scripted show since 2002. The film received acclaim, holding a 100% rating on the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes. It was nominated in the Animated Feature categories at the Academy Awards, Golden Globe Awards, Annie Awards. At the BAFTAs, it won the inaugural award for Children's & Family Film and was nominated for Outstanding British Film. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
