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

Prehistoric Peeps è un cortometraggio muto del 1905 diretto da Lewin Fitzhamon. Prende il nome da una popolare serie di cartoon scritti e disegnati da Edward Tennyson Reed all'inizio degli anni novanta del 1800 che apparvero pubblicati sul Punch. Viene generalmente considerato il primo film sui dinosauri, anche se furono usati dei semplici costumi da pantomima. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
