I agree. Also, instead of sharing a scripted video of moon, which we already have many, I would be more interested in high resolution models that I can explore as I want.

One starting point would be http://moontrek.jpl.nasa.gov, go to "Layers" (lower right), hit "Added layer" tab, add "Freeair Gravity, colorized" (type Gravity into the dialog box and choose that one from the several alternatives), change the alpha from 100% to about 50%, and browse as you like.
I believe this should get you to Mare Orientale:

This is still a browser, but it shows the gravity field similar to the video (not as good), and it's closer to something a scientist might use.
