Ok so lately I have been fascinated by anima movies. And I only know 3 different movies. So I was wondering if some of you guys and girls would be willing to tell me of some of your favorite anima movies.
Here is what I have seen:
1. Howls moving castle.(just watched it for like the 5th time)
2. Spirited away.
3. Castle in the sky
I would love to know about a few more.
I might not be the only one here either so just throw them out.8)8)

Are you looking for just feature movies or series?
All three movies you listed are all very good.
Here are my favorites.
Movies:
Highlander
Final Fantasy - Advent Children
Series:
Bleach
Full Metal Alchemist
Full Metal Panic!
All of the Gundam series
Death Note
Hellsing
Ergo Proxy
KARAS
Ergo Proxy and KARAS are particulary good, KARAS being one of the best constructed Anime series I have ever seen, not bad for a 6 episode series.

Assuming anima is the same as anime, I don't have many suggestions. BUT...
All of the Gundam series
Neon Genesis Evangelion
Rurouni Kenshin
All of those are TV series and have OVAs associated with them. I've been kinda interested in Ghost in the Shell too, but those are the only 3 that have really held my interest for very long. KARAS looked pretty cool and I can probably stand 6 episodes, so I'll check that out.

You listed 3 Studio Ghibli movies killergamer, so definitely check out their back catlogue (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Studio_Ghibli#Works). Otherwise, my picks are Akira, Ghost in the Shell (first movie, haven't seen the second), Ninja Scroll (movie only, series sucked) and Vampire Hunter D.
And that just about exhausts my knowledge of anime.
dragonball:P have 90 gb of the stuff lol... dragonball Z in particulary:P
but full metal alchemist as tbfo says
the movie casshern is worth looking to... strange but kinda good though
and some other movies i like:
(animated/anime)
Titan AE
final fantasy - the spirit within
final fantasy - advent children
cant come up with more atm:)

This is a good site to keep bookmarked. You can watch Anime online for free. If your not sure on a series you can watch a few episodes before you get the whole series.

Just letting you know that buy "get" I mean purchase. I purchase all of my Anime besides Bleach.

Akira - The first breakthrough anime feature film.
Ghost in the Shell - simply beautiful animation, and a very cool story.
Initial D - Japanese street racing.. 4 seasons and 2 movies, all awesome.
Steamboy - Hella Cool.
Those are just my top picks.. aside from that, there's o much more. The Animatrix has a ton of really cool animation in it, lots in "anime style", it's just a great collection of short films.
yeah! animatrix is so awsome!:D

Cool site. Maybe I'll start watching [other] animes now. I'm going to check out Karas, since they have 5 of the 6 episodes :D. One question though; I was supposed to install a thing called Zango, right? Because I did and I'm not sure why lol. Good thing I'm going to reformat this after I buy Vista :rolleyes:.
Edit: Ok, Zango is super annoying. Do I need it installed to use the site?

I would not suggest using any site that requires using zango. It's a piece of well known adware. You should be able to use ad-aware to remove it fairly easily.

Heres one I just remembered and I loved it when I was a kid, Robotech. Now that was a good Anime. I believe there were a few movies too.

Sorry Mal. I didn't get the prompt for Zango. The best Anime is always the Japanese with English subtitles, that is all I watch. The English version of the Anime is always crap, very bad dubbing. Compare the traditional and English Bleach episodes and you will get what I mean.
alright...i guess i should give you guys a list..heh
im kinda surprised no on has mentioned Serial Experiments:lain , very much an interesting computer-esque theme to it
ikki tousen, aka battle vixens in manga
love hina
black lagoon
trigun
SE:lain, as i mentioned earlier
neon genesis
ghost in the shell
onegai teacher
yukikaze
hellsing
chobits
tengo tenge
gantz- very good series
elfen lied
deathnote
i have several more, just kinda slipping my mind at the moment

Has anyone seen Appleseed or Appleseed Ex Machina? Are they worth checking out?
Maybe after work today I'll check some of these out. Like I said before, I'm not a huge anime fan but I do enjoy the sci-fi stuff Japanese people come up with. Karas still looked pretty cool, but I doubt we have it.

Endless Waltz is great. It's the movie length finale to the Gundam Wing series.

Appleseed Ex Machina looks brilliant in HD. I watched it on my old 17" CRT but I'm going to try it again on the new monitor I got. Very cool movie, nice recommendation crenn!
I still need to check out Ghost in the Shell. I've been interested in it for a while, but never got around to it.

I just found a new one during the week.
Denno Coil
It's pretty good, a little kiddy cartooney (the art is like Totoro) but a good story line.
