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

¿Quién quiere ser millonario? (English translation: Who wants to be a millionaire?) was a Peruvian Quiz show based on the original British format of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? The show was hosted by Guido Lombardi. The main goal of the game was to win 1 million Peruvian nuevo sol (US$295,000) by answering 15 multiple-choice questions correctly. There were three lifelines - fifty fifty, phone a friend and ask the audience. ¿Quién quiere ser millonario? was broadcast from 2001 to 2002. It was shown on the Peruvian TV station Canal 13. When a contestant got the fifth question correct, he left with at least S/. 1,000. When a contestant got the tenth question correct, he left with at least S/. 32,000. The biggest prize won on the show was S/. 32,000. Second season of the show was announced but due to internal problems at the network this never happened. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
