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.
How it feels
A clumsy superhero in a red and yellow outfit tries to help people but often makes mistakes. Each episode brings new characters and situations for him to bumble through as he parodies more serious superhero stories.

What happens
El Chapulín Colorado (Spanish pronunciation: [el tʃapuˈliŋ koloˈɾaðo], transl. The Red Grasshopper) is a Mexican superhero television comedy series that aired from 1973 to 1979 and parodied superhero shows. It was created by actor and comedian Chespirito, who also played the main character. It was first aired by Televisa in 1973 in Mexico, and then was aired across Latin America and Spain until 1981, alongside El Chavo del Ocho, which shared the same cast of actors. Both shows have endured in re-runs and have won back some of their popularity in several countries such as Brazil, Colombia, and Peru. Although the series has a regular cast, all actors but Gómez Bolaños play different characters each episode, and it is therefore described as an anthology series. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
