What are some good anime to watch?

I've always hated the DBZ rewrites so my short ass list is:

Akira - just a movie...a classic
Fullmetal Alchemist - didn't dig it at first but it really picked up after they stopped the filler crap and amped up the maturity
Avatar The Last Airbender - not true anime...but it takes what anime does right and does everything else infinitely better
Evangelion - My favorite of all time. Be warned however, this is a VERY VERY deep anime that goes into ultra mind fuck mode. You have to watch it with dedication otherwise you'll miss the point. It's a you'll love it or you'll hate it anime (often people that hate it missed the point of it entirely and have bad reasons too)

I've also been told Deathnote is actually good as I avoided it mistaking it for another Bleach type one.
 
This is gonna be a little different. You probably won't be a fan of this, but I thought I'd give it a shot anyway. :p Why not try out a Kamen Rider series ? Technicially it's Tokusatsu, but it's kinda anime based in a way. I'd recommend Kamen Rider Kabuto or Kamen Rider 555 for first time viewers (Really good in terms of action and story). Reason I recommend this is because alot of the anime now a days pales in compared to the anime in the 80s and 90s. Heck the last awesome anime I've seen in the 00s was Gurren Lagann. KR kinda gives a nice break from the same old anime that has been repeated over and over again. Just adding my 2 cents. ^_^

P.S. Even thou the series is mind fuck, Evangelion is awesome. :D
 
Any movie by hayao miyazaki is always epic.

If you havn't already watch spirited away and howls moving castle.
