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 high school boy gets caught up in the bizarre activities of his eccentric classmate Haruhi Suzumiya. She unknowingly has reality-altering powers, and their school club deals with aliens, time travelers, and espers.
