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.
How it feels
A rich young man bets his friends he can start from nothing and return in a year with a wife and success. He goes west, works on a ranch, and wins over the boss's daughter after standing up for a dog. His former girlfriend tries to sabotage the relationship.
