Basically I'll give anything a try, except maybe musicals, which I don't really like apart from The Nightmare Before Christmas.
We both thought Ong Bak kicked ass though.

As for other anime that are available as one sort of cheapish collection
Orguss 02. (I’m biased as it was one of the first I had seen and stuck in my head)
Tokyo revelation
Macross Plus
These are just a few. As for anime in general there will be Full Metal Alchemist at 8:30 Tuesday and and Wolf ‘s Rain at 8:30 Thursday on Rapture. Sky digital only by the looks of it. Said to be uncut so that’s good.. Eng dub I’m guessing but we should be able to live through that right. Is positive to see two animes on UK TV.
Yeah I’m plugging it. I want more anime on TV.

Anime films I have:
Spirited Away
Princess Mononoke
Ghost in the Shell
Kiki's Delivery Service
Akira
Ninja Scrolls
I found it in HMV for £3. It's dark, insightful, intelligent, and it's absolutely nothing like you'd expect from a 50s film with Frank Sinatra.
I consider it an unrecognised classic.
Run Lola Run and Memento are both intelligent and unusual, but in similar ways.
The Taxi films were great, and are now available in an English dub, if you like that kind of thing.
