No prob :) I saw so many of the titles that i would put in my top 10 i had to respond!
I forgot to mention that as well...the whole superior attitute thing. I get like that myself...when i see random friends of mine on facebook start liking naruto or bleach yet 6 - 7 years ago they were the same people saying it was stupid to watch "cartoons" lol  But yeah that definitely plays a role in peoples top 10 lists. Even though i understand it i still think its stupid.
With regards to naruto...i liked some of the fillers too. For example episodes 130 - 220 of the original naruto series was really funny self contained episodes. Some of those episodes were seriously hilarious. The only issue i had with those were that i always expected the story to continue yet it never did. In hindsight i should have just done a google search about it...which probably would have given some sort of information about shippuuden and when it will be released.
With Shippuuden though i dont like the way they approached things. In the original, there was a clear distinction between filler and non filler. In shippuuden they try and mix things together to the point where you dont really know whats going on. I mean in the middle of fight they cut away to something that seems trivial and random yet in the same setting...not to mention that the animation usually takes a hit in filler episodes. I'd prefer there be a clear distinction. I'd rather they do a 100 filler episodes to allow the manga to get further ahead than to do fillers after every 10 or 15 episodes. Sometimes not even that long. It really doesnt make any sense at times. I also dont like how they change up the order in which events happen...Shippuuden is suppose to start with Kakkashi's back story...instead it starts with a stupid teaser...this has a major impact on the pacing and intensity of the show.
Some time ago i also did a direct comparison for certain scenes in the anime with the manga....i found that certain scenes which dont have any memmory flashbacks in the manga are flooded with them in the anime. This gets really bad in shippuuden where literally nothing happens in some episodes. Such a farcry from what the anime was back in the day.
I honestly dont mind certain things but when it starts to effect the overall quality of the anime then it bugs me. Because in shippuuden you actually cant skip all the filler episodes easily. :/
If i had money id fund a naruto remake sticking 100% to the manga 
I like Death Note too. I thought it was really really really good when it started but as i got to the end i somehow lost interest. And never went back! XD
