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
An English gentleman accepts a wager to travel around the world in 80 days. He and his companions use a mix of old-fashioned and new transportation methods to make the journey.

What happens
