The DVD collection is huge - thousands of movies are neatly sorted by genre on shelves that extend at least a hundred feet down the wall. Romance, horror, fantasy, comedy, adventure, children's films, erotic films, foreign films. What was special about this, though? Sure, there were a lot of movies to watch, but the player had a ten-inch screen and probably would be terrible to watch for any length of time. There are some movies stacked up on a shelf next to the player. The top one is the original Terminator - but when you look at the cover, the space where Arnold's head should be is blank. The DVD in the player is also blank - no label and no indication it has been written to.
A trash can under the player has three other blank DVDs in it, probably from the three other movie cases. You look at the cases. The original Pirates of the Caribbean, minus Johnny Depp's image. Speed Racer with a blank where the original character had been. A Midsummer Night's Dream missing the image of Kevin Kline. Curious, you take the blank DVD out and drop it in the trash, then grab a movie from the rack. Dennis the Menace - a family film with a blonde kid in coveralls and a gruff looking older actor - Walter Matthau - behind him. You put the DVD in and close the cover. The screen flickers, and then shifts to a strange perspective. The camera is showing the view from the kid's eyes - even stranger because you can make out a nose and even some blinking. The view starts to get larger, and you smell fresh cut grass and hear insects and some old man yelling. Confused, you turn away to see who is yelling, and catch sight of the DVD cover - the image of the blonde kid is fading away!
You jerk back from the DVD player and the screen goes blank. As you watch, the cover image of Dennis is fully restored. If you had kept watching, you would have become Dennis the Menace, not just the actor, but the character in the movie! You can become any movie character in any movie here!
