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
Oh Mabel is a 1924 American animated short film, part of the Song Car-Tunes film series. This film is the first sound film of the series, and used the Phonofilm sound-on-film system. The Song Car-Tunes series, before it ended in September 1926, eventually totaled 36 films, of which 19 were made with sound. The Fleischer brothers, Lee de Forest, Hugo Riesenfeld, and Edwin Miles Fadiman formed Red Seal Pictures to release the Song Car-Tunes series. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
