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 former astronaut gains superhuman intelligence from a space accident and teams up with his motorcycle, which has the consciousness of his best friend. Together they travel the country evading a mad scientist who wants to steal the astronaut's brain.
