Exit from while loop but keep shell open: powershell - powershell

Question

For learnig Powershell I've wrote a script that choose a film randomly from a list, until the list runs out, but, at the end of list I want that the shell keeps open... I've tried many options Break/Return/exit... nothing to do... tried to add the last if condition in to the while condition but, not works, at the end of list an error message says that the array is empty/null, or shell quits after last film...
Yes, I can put a pause instead of return, for that script would be ok, but it doesn't seems an "elegant" solution...
The icing on the cake would be a better option to trim the extension from film name..! Because in my mode, a film name that finish with a "m", "k", or "v", these chars are trimmed out toghether with the ".mkv" expression! :)
Can someone drive me please?
This is the code:
$LastFile = (Get-Item "F:\DATA\Films list\*" | Where-Object {$_.Name -match "Title"} | sort LastWriteTime | select -last 1).FullName
$TitleList = Get-Content $LastFile | where { $_ -notmatch "4K" }
$TitleList.Count
$Listed = New-Object System.Collections.ArrayList
Foreach ( $film in $TitleList ) {
$Listed.Add("$film") | out-null
}
$RandomFilm = Get-Random -InputObject $Listed
Write-Host $RandomFilm.Trim('.mkv') -ForegroundColor Green
$Listed.Remove("$RandomFilm")
$TitleCount = 1
echo "_________________________________________________________________________________________"
echo "`n`n"
$Answer = Read-Host "RETURN for new film, q for quitting..."
while ( "q" -notcontains $Answer) {
echo "`n`n"
$RandomFilm = Get-Random -InputObject $Listed
if ( $RandomFilm -ne $null ) {
Write-Host $RandomFilm.Trim('.mkv') -ForegroundColor Green
$Listed.Remove("$RandomFilm")
$TitleCount++
$TitleCount
if ( $TitleCount -gt $TitleList.Count ) {
Write-Host "END OF LIST..." -ForegroundColor red
Return
}
else {
echo "_________________________________________________________________________________________"
echo "`n`n"
$Answer = Read-Host "RETURN for new film, q for quitting..."
}
}
}

Several ways of doing this. If you are running your script with powershell then $Host.UI.RawUI.ReadKey("NoEcho,IncludeKeyDown")at the end of the script is a good option (this will not work with powershell_ise tho). In ISE you can add a read-host at the end.
If you are running your script from a shortcut you can add -NoExit: powershell.exe -NoExit -file .\script.ps1
