Since you've seen a few of my must-see movies, I've decided to watch one of yours. I always wanted to watch more film noir movies since I always like when shows do film noir spoofs so I watched Sunset Blvd. In fact, there was a Tiny Toons Adventure parody called Sepulveda Blvd.

While there were some glaring plot points (like why didn't Max just continue making movies that starred Norma?), it was a good watch overall. Even though we know what happens since it shows the ending first, I wasn't sure where the plot was going. The actress who played Norma did such a good job at making the audience feel fearful and sympathetic towards Norma. If I watch any of the other movies on your list I'll let you know.

I'm pretty surprised. I am always trying to recommend anime to my friends to get them into it. But I can see how some fans are jerks. Like they forgot what it was like to be newbies.

I tried to list shows that were not only finished, but also relatively short so that they're not intimidating to start. Hope you find one you like! I didn't include any shoujo (girl targeted) anime because I forgot and don't really watch many. Only one I've seen is Ouran Host Club which is actually pretty good so I'll add it to my list.
