No, I haven't heard of nor have I've seen any of those movies. Are they comedies?

haha, Napoleon Dynamite is "supposed" to be a "comedy", but I thought it was just more ridiculous than anything else...it's worth a look though...maybe you'll enjoy it

Napoleon Dynamite is a really quirky film...it's supposed to be a comedy but it's very dry. It's still a really good film.
Veronica Mars is my all-time favourite show. It's in its third season now. I absolutely recommend both, but especially VMars. Napoleon Dynamite just so you know what the hell I was talking about. Hell I think I still have it on my computer after downloading it from somewhere. If you're got the HD space, PM me with your email and I'll zip it up and send it to you. That way you don't have to pay for it.
If you've got Netflix, rent season 1 and 2 of Veronica Mars. I can assure you you will be hooked in the first episode and try to watch it all in the span of two days (like my oh so masculine boyfriend who also loves VMars. It's the chick show guys love to watch  )
EDIT: don't judge the film before you've watched it. You can say it's stupid after you've seen it :P

 centaur532, I'm sorry, but what's the HD space? I know I don't have it if I don't even know what it is. My sisters always tease me about not even having a myspace account. I'll rent Nepolean Dynamite though, I might like it.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. The whole time, I kept thinking that it has the potential to be funny. Any second now, someone was going to say or do something and I was going to burst out laughing...and then the credits started rolling and I thought WTF just happened here?

There's already been 2 hours of my life spent that I can't get back watching that. I don't need to lose any more.
