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
Talking Point is an Australian television series which aired 1960 to 1962 on Sydney station ATN-7 (Australian TV was not fully networked at the time, and most non-imported series aired on a single station). It was a discussion series featuring a panel of four. Angus Maude was the original host, later it was hosted by Joe Gullett. In one episode, the panel criticised the banning of the book Lady Chatterley's Lover, in another episode there was a debate on the future of the United Nations, while another episode featured a discussion of the space race.
