One of the most-awaited DVDs this week is Battlestar Galactica: The Plan, a sort of Rosencrantz & Guildenstern-like retelling of the sci-fi TV favorite’s first two seasons, from the point of view of the Cylons. But that’s not the only DVD release this week pitched to cultists. Like The Big Lebowski? Check out the documentary The Achievers: The Story Of Lebowski Fans. Obsessed with the apocalypse? Or JFK? Or doughy old journalists? Enjoy Life After People, Virtual JFK or On The Road With Charles Kuralt. Want to pretend to be an expert on a musical subculture? Pick up You Weren’t There: A History Of Chicago Punk 1977-84. This week, the niches get their due.
