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 series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

The Adventures of Batman is an animated television series produced by Lou Scheimer's Filmation studios. It consists of the 12-minute Batman segments from The Batman/Superman Hour, which premiered on September 14, 1968, on CBS. The following season, in 1969, a 30-minute version that omitted the Superman and Superboy segments aired as Batman with Robin the Boy Wonder. Olan Soule was the voice of Batman and is most likely best known for the role. Casey Kasem, notable for his voiceover and radio work, was the voice of Robin. Batman would next appear in two The New Scooby-Doo Movies crossovers and various iterations of Super Friends (featuring Soule and Kasem reprising their Batman and Robin roles), and would next appear in a self-titled series with The New Adventures of Batman in 1977.
