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

Tales, also known as Star Wars Tales, is a collection of American animated anthology television series created by Dave Filoni for the streaming service Disney+. Each series consists of six shorts that explore characters from the Star Wars franchise. They are produced by Lucasfilm Animation with Filoni as supervising director. Filoni began writing Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi while working on the live-action Star Wars series The Mandalorian (2019–2023). He revealed the first official details in May 2022. It explores Jedi from the prequel trilogy era and follows two "paths", one focused on Ahsoka Tano (voiced by Ashley Eckstein) and the other on Count Dooku (voiced by Corey Burton). Tales of the Jedi was released on Disney+ on October 26, 2022, and received critical acclaim, with praise towards its animation, writing, and musical score. A second installment was announced in April 2023, and was revealed a year later to be titled Star Wars: Tales of the Empire. It explores characters related to the Galactic Empire and is again split into two arcs: one follows Morgan Elsbeth (voiced by Diana Lee Inosanto) and the other follows former Jedi Barriss Offee (voiced by Meredith Salenger). Tales of the Empire was released on May 4, 2024. Star Wars: Tales of the Underworld, focused on bounty hunters active in the criminal underworld, was announced in April 2025. Like its predecessors, it is split into two arcs: one following Asajj Ventress (voiced by Nika Futterman) and the other following Cad Bane (voiced by Corey Burton). Tales of the Underworld was released on May 4, 2025. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
