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
Lilo & Stitch is a 2025 American comedy-drama film produced by Walt Disney Pictures and Rideback. Directed by Dean Fleischer Camp, it is a live-action animated remake of Disney's 2002 traditionally animated film Lilo & Stitch. The film stars Sydney Elizebeth Agudong, Billy Magnussen, Hannah Waddingham, Courtney B. Vance, Zach Galifianakis, and Maia Kealoha in her film debut, with original Lilo & Stitch writer-director Chris Sanders reprising his voice role as Stitch. Development on a live-action remake of Lilo & Stitch began in October 2018, with writer Mike Van Waes and producers Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich attached. By November 2020, Jon M. Chu was in talks to direct, while Van Waes left the project despite still being credited. Fleischer Camp and Chris Kekaniokalani Bright were announced as the film's new director and writer respectively in July 2022, with casting taking place between November 2022 and June 2023. Principal photography ran from April to July 2023, filming during the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike until suspending production due to the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike, and then in February and March 2024 after both strikes ended. Dan Romer composed the score, and Industrial Light & Magic provided the film's visual effects with the assistance of several other effects houses. Lilo & Stitch premiered at the El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles on May 17, 2025, and was released in the United States on May 23, by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. The film received generally positive reviews from critics, and grossed $1.038 billion worldwide, becoming the fourth-highest-grossing film of 2025 and the highest-grossing live-action/animated hybrid in history, being the first of its kind to gross over $1 billion. A sequel, with Sanders writing and directing, is in development for release on May 26, 2028. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
