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
Five people each host a dinner party for the other guests. They cook a three course meal and provide entertainment. The guests score the host on the food and hosting skills, and the host with the highest total wins a trophy and cash prize.

What happens
House Guest is a British reality programme that ran on ITV from 19 May – 19 December 2008. The show consists of a group of five people who each, along with a co-host, host a dinner party for the other guests. This involves a three course meal along with entertainment. The guests mark, out of 10, the host's food and hosting skills. After the party, one guest stays the night at the host's house and in the morning the guest marks their night's stay out of 10. The three individual scores give the host's total score, and at the end of the week, the host with the highest score wins the house guest trophy and a £1,000 prize. House Guest was noted for its similarity to Channel 4's Come Dine With Me. A third season of the show, titled House Guest in the Sun, aired in March 2010 and featured British expats living in Europe, with a prize of €1,000. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
