Oh, and watch the Cowboy Bebop movie in case you haven't. It's pretty good. Also, the guy who did Cowboy Bebop did Samurai Champloo and that's worth checking out. Maybe not as good as Cowboy Bebop, but still has the same feel and just really bad ass. And the soundtrack is also pretty good if you like Hip Hop. Instead of space it's in feudal Japan.
And if you want another mecha series to look at besides the countless Gundam series, there's always Neon Genesis Evangelion. I've only seen parts of it, though, so I can't exactly recommend it.
The first Afro Samurai film was pretty cool, too. And the action scenes are done fairly well.
I hope you get out of only just wanting to watch only action Anime, cause there's so much good shit out there. Like the Studio Gibli films and some of Satoshi Kon's work like Paranoia Agent, Perfect Blue, and Tokyo Godfathers. Just so much good short series (like 20 or so episodes) and a bunch of great films.
And, believe it or not, the Naruto and One Piece series are actually really good with the original Japanese dubs if you can stand to read subtitles. The Westernization of them turned them to shit.
And for another sort of action oriented really long series there's Lupin the 3rd if you want to keep up with the shenanigans of a deadbeat thief and his gang.
Sorry for all the suggestions, but hope some of those peak your interest.
