I think I probably have all the niche's you've covered above included in my random portfolio of sites, thankfully the main site (the others are just hobbies really) is webhosting that works all year round!

For example if you have a blog about some sport then your traffic might mainly be when the season is going on and hence your revenue. Another example is exactly what you mention, DVD boxsets are definitely something I consider as gifts rather than people buying them randomly for themselves so I'd indeed expect you to sell a lot more around gift holidays, for example Christmas. One way to combat this is to try pick niche's that somehow overlap, for example cover a winter sport in one blog and a summer sport in another one.
