DVD Talk Legend
I am getting the new Where the Red Fern Grows for my mom for Christmas.
I will probably pick up Napoleon Dynamite, Manchurian Candidate and King Arthur(just to see Kiera Knightly) later on.

Anacondas: It got horrible ratings
Napoleon: I haven't seen it yet but I heard that it's either a movie that you'll love or hate, not much middle ground

I don't get this Napolean Dynamite thing. I read the DVDTalk review for it and it only gave it a "Rent it" recommendation.
On that point, I'm only getting King Arthur - DC. But I've got Andromeda v4.3 on the way as of Thursday as well.

If you haven't seen it, it's worth a look. I went into it expecting it to be a third-rate wannabe of (equal parts) Wes Anderson and Todd Solondz, and while it was admittedly derivative of their works to some extent, it had it's own thing going on. I was totally entertained the whole time, and honestly, I haven't seen too many movies this year that were more enjoyable. You might just be surprised...

An audience favorite at the Sundance film festival, Napoleon Dynamite may not be entirely lovable, but it's definitely unique.
The bold part is all I need to know. Mr. [Robert] Redford and his Sundance Channel can go to hell for all I care.
