All excellent movies. The Magnificent Ambersons would not by some peoples standards, mostly because of it's subject and date, but I think it has enough qualities to qualify. Blue Velvet and Blood Simple would fall into the neo-noir category, which still counts. The Seventh Seal won't count as Noir, but it is a great film.
Since you like those movies, you should check out Laura, The Set Up, and Double Indemnity. If you like to read, you should grab any Raymond Chandler novel. The Big Sleep , and The High Window are two of my favorites.
When I see TCM or another channel is playing a good noir or other classic movie, I'll be sure to post it here.
