I haven't seen many that I can think of. But I liked Reign of Fire and Pete's Dragon. Dragonheart was a little cornier than I had hoped for, but OK. Anyone ever read Anne McCaffrey's Pern books? Now that would be something to see come to the big screen, in my opinion.

eragon was rubbish compared to the book
Wrong, the book and the movie were CRAP! The book was just a bunch of fantasy cliches (Harry Potter, not being the best fantasy books/movies in terms of character deepness and such specific literarian questions, have quite interesting plots that handle cliches and common places [like the orphan seeking for revenge] in a superior way to all its imitator, like Eragorn) that look pathetic and silly compared with LOTR and Harry Potter; and the movie only looks good compared with the camp '80s sword and sorcery movies (like the overculted Beastmaster). -

I adore Anne McCaffrey's novels! I think I've read every series she's published (at least the sci-fi/fantasy ones). The Pern books are what got me hooked on her.
Several attempts have apparently been made to bring the books to the big (or small) screen, but nothing has come of it yet. As much as I would love to see them, I'm afraid that, like many books that are made into movies, it will never be able to do justice to her vision. -

Cinema have not been kind to dragons, I can't name a single good movie that revolved around dragons. Dragonheart was probably the closest, but even then, the movie is still pretty eh. So-So, not great, nor bad. Although the visuals to this day are still amazing.
Heck, although I haven't seen Eragon, from what I seen in the commercials, Draco looks alot more believable then that one. Dragonheart was truly ahead of it's time -

Dragonheart
Flight of Dragons
Dragonheart 2 (Please don't hurt me, it was OK in my opinion)
Spirited Away (Because Haku is kickarse)
Pete's Dragon
I saw this one movie which was surpsingly recent but very low budget called "Dragon", it was as bland as it's title. Honestly, it was so appallingly bad I wondered how the hell it managed to get onto Sky Movies. The acting was terrible, the lines were cheesy and the CGI dragon was so bad, it looked like something from an old computer game.
The best bit was watching this guy get his face burned off by the dragon. Again, the bad special effects made it look like he had hot ketchup exploding off him in stop motion, it was hilarious.

Wow, I never even heard of Flight of the Dragons, I'll have to look into that.
Rating for the dragons and not the movie itself:- Dragonslayer
- Dragonheart
- Willow
- Sleeping Beauty
- Reign of Fire
With honorable mention to Pete's Dragon, The Lollipop Dragon, The Reluctant Dragon, and Puff the Magic Dragon.
