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

Father of the Pride is an American adult CGI animated sitcom created by Jeffrey Katzenberg and produced by DreamWorks Animation for NBC. Father of the Pride follows a family of white lions, the patriarch of which stars in a Siegfried & Roy show in Las Vegas. Despite heavy promotion and support, the series was cancelled after one season due to declining ratings. Transmission and production were also delayed by the real-life on-stage injury of Roy Horn in October 2003. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
