In Gnome:
Open nautilus right-click on file you want to open and choose "Properties" then select the "Open With" tab and choose the default you want to open the file type with.

VLC is the easiest to set up for DVDs

As root from the commandline:
#apt-get remove nameofprogram
or start up synaptic and find the packages that you want to remove.
