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 film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

The Katzenjammer Kids è un cortometraggio muto del 1912 diretto da Chauncy D. Herbert. Recitato da attori in carne e ossa, il film si ispira alle tavole del celebre fumetto disegnato da Rudolph Dirks. È il primo di una serie di corti prodotti dalla Selig sui personaggi di Dirks. Questa fu la terza trasposizione cinematografica dei Katzenjammer Kids (in Italia, il fumetto è conosciuto sotto il nome di Bibì e Bibò) dopo il primo, The Katzenjammer Kids in School del 1898 e The Katzenjammer Kids Have a Love Affair del 1900, prodotti ambedue dall'American Mutoscope Company.
