Choosing the 3D Apps is actually it's depend on your skill or taste, you know what i mean.
as you do know..maya is a bit expensive than 3dsmax.

but many people said that maya is lot better for animation than MAX.
if you really will go on full animation and money is not a problem, maybe you can go with maya.

and remember, that maya has complete and complicated tools for you to know.

I would advise you to go with 3d max. Maya is also good maybe in some points better than max but I don't know maya so what I do know I can suggest. Have fun discovering (or learning) what ever program you chose :)

Sincerely SDA, cheers
