Oh Brother, Where Art Thou

And my wife just loved The Sopranos boxsets - then they were lent to her brothers, sister, and Mom. Now all I hear from that side of the family is "When are we going to get Season 4?"

(That'll be under a certain plastic tree in a manner of a few weeks ... )

I ended up getting ET, A Christmas Story, and Holes (she really liked the book I guess), and I'll throw in a B&N gift card. Thanks for the ideas.

I ordered Fargo too, but planned on giving it to my Dad. I've never even seen it, would my Mom like it? (I'd like to even it out a bit, my Dad is currently getting about 10 movies, my Mom only 3). Thanks.

Mmm. Fargo is a black comedy. It is definitely not the same general category as ET, Christmas Story and Holes. If they are easily offended, you might want to hold off on Fargo until you have seen it. I happen to love the movie.

Haha, my parents, easily offended? She/they will like it MORE for that reason. Thanks.

Actually I've never seen that so I'm just guessing.
