What would you guys list as your top 5 must-see Anime Movies of all time ? This seems to vary from person to person, so i’m curious to spot anything i haven’t watched
My top 5 would be - (in no particular order)
Spirited Away
Princess Mononoke
The Secret World Of Arriety
Ghost In The Shell (Watched it when i was so small…barely understood what was going on 
)
Gundam Wing : Endless Waltz (Holds a special place in my heart 
)
Awesome list! Absolutely loved Princess Monokeke and Spiited away! I’ll give the others a try when I have the time! To be honest I haven’t watched that many anime movies, I’m more into anime serieses than movies but here are some I’ll add to what you have mentioned already:
First of all Omoide no Marnie (When marine was there). It’s a fairly new movie by ghibli and heavily underrated.
The Kara no Kyoukai movies. Could be said to be the first masterpeice ufotable and Yuki Kajiura together have produced.
Also, Suzumiya Haruhi no Shoushitsu (The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya). One of the greatest movies KyoAni has ever produced and as an avid fan of KyoAni I cannot but help mention it.
Will definitely give these a watch :o
WHAT ABOUT AKIRA ?? 
Akira was good too…But i didn’t like it enough for it to be in my favourites 
not everyone’s cup of tea i guess. but sure enough to make it one of the best of all time 
Yes, it is considered to be one of the best anime movies by so many people.
It was credited with expanding anime to the west
In fact it takes the No.1 spot in this top 10 by Watchmojo

Ooooh. I cant name the top 5 because i love too many of them! So here is an extensive list of my favorites.
I’ll make a separate post for Ghibli
my favorite being:
The Wolf Children - probably my favorite movie out of everything. Absolutely adore it. From the art, to the story telling.
He has directed other great films too. One that i particularly enjoy a lot. Especially in the animation and char design department, would be
Summer Wars. Great fun!
He has another popular anime called "The Girl Who Lept Through Time "
I need to watch his newest film "The Boy and the Beast"
His films are fairly popular,
Films like “5 cm per Second”, “Voices of a Distant Star”, The Children who Chase Lost Voices", etc
His films are easily the most stunning. the artwork is flabbergasting. mind blowing-ly beautiful.
R.I.P
His works are all practically masterpieces too. Perfect Blue, being my favorite. 10/10 stuff.
But movies like Millennial Actress, Paprika,and Tokyo godfathers hold firm ground as well.
His story telling , and whacky movies sends you on trip. his unique style is easily recognizable , and i LOVE it.
Check out “Paranoia Agent” - An anime directed by him
Honorable mentions :
-Sword of the Stranger - Masahiro Andô
-Dead Leaves - Hiroyuki Imaishi
Hopefully i’m not forgetting anything.
oh,
If you want my thoughts on ghibli movies , do let me know!

Brace yourself. It got bitter sweet endings.
My personal top five would be:
This is one that wasn’t mentioned before.
Sakasama no Patema -It has a very unique sci-fi story along with some really beautiful art,check it out if you haven’t.
My Top 5.
Suzumiya Haruhi no Shoushitsu
Hotaru no Haka
Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi
Byousoku 5 Centimeter
Ghost in the Shell
Why haven’t anyone mentioned girl who leapt through time 
1.Ghost in the Shell
2.Perfect Blue
3.Spirited Away
4.Girl who leapt through time
5.Wolf Children
I have heard so much about “the girl who leapt through time” 
i must watch it
Agreed! The girl who leapt through time was one of my first anime movies and still one of my favourites!
Guys whabout Kimi No Nawa???
BTW does anyone have information on Koe No Katachi??
I think koe no katachi isn’t released yet
I mean its a good movie, Makoto shinkai works are generally good ,they usually take different take on romance but compared to someone like Mamaru Hosada, they aren’t that good ( this is of course relatively speaking ,I love his work)
