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

Bound for Glory is a reality television show which aired on ESPN from October to December 2005. The show featured former Chicago Bears linebacker Dick Butkus coaching the suburban Pittsburgh (Robinson based) Montour High School Spartans. The Spartans were a perennial Pennsylvania state champion contender in the 1950s and 1960s but had consistent losing records since. Butkus coached the team to a 1–6 record before leaving the team, claiming he had fulfilled his contract for the show. He was highly critical of the players, and chided them on the show for their poor attitude. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
