That is mostly up to date.

Use it.

Newer stuff (the last few years) is better but anything will do.

I recommend the Fullmetal Alchemists. Both are great.

Lately I've been marathoning the Gundam Franchise. If you stick with shows set in the Universal Century timeline, you're in for a treat.

UC Gundams:

The Original (either movie trilogy or tv series. Take your pick, I personally prefer the tv series, but most people recommend the movie trilogy), Z(eta) Gundam, ZZ (Double Zeta) Gundam, 0080, 0083, 08th MS Team (Not as good as I remembered, but most people seem fond of it), Char's Counterattack, F91, Victory, and Unicorn.

Not interested in Gundams.

I own FMA but I have only seen a few episodes.

When I watch all of it, I'll decide if I want to watch FMA:B afterward.

This was the first anime I ever really watched.

I hated it.

Might have been just because I wasn't a big fan of anime in general back then but I am still wary of it.

I stayed away from the series because I thought the movie was terrible.

This was over ten years ago (when I was in middle school) when my friend lent me Ghost in the Shell and Akira and told me they were godly and I hated them both.

I rewatched Akira last year and I still hated it.

If you do end up watching Gintama you should know that the first 2 episodes aren't in the manga (aka filler) and are generally considered some of the worst episodes in the series.

This is good to know.

I mean, I usually don't give up on shows quickly (pretty much never) but I might have put it on hold sooner.

It's a reboot of a 90s action series, which seems to be pretty well regarded as a bit of a throwback to older anime.

Basically a high school kid gets accidentally walks into a den of intergalactic criminals and blasted by space police officer Birdy. To save his life she transferred his memories into her body and uses her transformation powers to imitate his appearance so he can live some semblance of a normal life while they share the same body.

It sounds cliche, but it actually pulls it off pretty well (better than either of the manga it's based on) and I was pleasantly surprised that it avoided certain tropes. Season 1 is a pretty typical action anime plot, while season 2 is more ploty and personal, examining the aftermath of the first season, Birdy's past, and is a bit more morally ambiguous as it's about Birdy tracking down a vigilante brutally murdering criminals in hiding on earth before they can stand trial.

At any rate you can legally watch it in its entirety for free on Hulu IIRC.

From Wikipedia:

The story takes place in the afterlife and focuses on Otonashi, a boy who lost his memories of his life after dying. He is enrolled into the afterlife school and meets a girl named Yuri who invites him to join the Battlefront—an organization she leads which fights against God. The Battlefront fight against the student council president Angel, a girl with supernatural powers.

I honestly can't tell if that is awesome or not.

Seems like it is.

As bewildering as the summary makes it, the plot is pretty simple.

It's short, it has some serious tones, but also contains good comedy. I suggest at least watching the first episode.

Hurry, vote on Monster dub or sub so I can make some DVDs.

Note: I prefer dubs unless they're awful.

So, I'm not asking you what is superior in general, dubs or subs, but I'm asking you DOES THE MONSTER DUB SUCK?

The dub is great besides the main antagonist, who's VA is noticeably weaker than the rest of the cast. It's not that big of a deal though.
