Who likes Manga movies? I do.

Akira was great. And the Street Fighter one wasan't bad either.

They are a bit porny and mind boggling. Yet, I accept them into my family.

Wahooo.

I'll ignore the ignorance and vast generalisation and throw in my recommendations:
(* region 1 dvd only at the moment)

Akira
Castle of Cagliostro
Castle in the Sky
Cowboy Bebop vol 1-6*
Cowboy Bebop The Movie
Cyber City Oedo 808*
Excel Saga
FLCL*
Ghost in the Shell
Grave of the Fireflies*
GTO: Great Teacher Onizuka*
Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade*
Kiki’s Delivery Service
L/R: Licensed by Royalty*
Lupin III TV*
Macross Plus
Master Keaton*
Metropolis
My Neighbour Totoro*
Patlabor TV series*
Patlabor 1, 2, 3*
Porco Rosso (Japanese R2 only at the moment)
Princess Mononoke
Spirited Away*
Spriggan
Wings of Honneamise*

There's a million and one other great films and tv shows too.
Multi-region dvd players are easy to pick up nowadays, and in order to see some of the best stuff about, you need to be able to get US dvds. Numerous titles are released every week over there, whereas we don't get a huge amount (though it has been improving over the past year or so), so there's a huge selection of US dvds, and loads of great films/tv series aren't available here yet.
Basically what I'm saying, is that if you've seen some good region 2 titles like Ghost in the Sheel, Akira etc, and want to expand your horizon a bit, US dvds offer a whole new opportunity for anime excellence.

Didn't they spend about 100 episodes running around in a Ziggarat and then when you thought the series was reaching its epic, they all go "oh actually we're in the wrong one, let's go to that one over there!"?

And wasn't one of them called "m mmm m Mendosa"? And wasn't there a mouse in it?

And some mysterious cities?
