What is the best movie with a dragon in it?

To add: If a dragon movie was as good as Aliens or The Terminator, how much money would it deserve to make?

PS: If I've missed out anything, scream at me.

Actually, I forgot about Dungeons & Dragons (not that many of you would have voted for it anyway), but that's what happens when you can't edit your posts. Oh well .. *shrugs*

And Jason and the Argonauts didn't show up on the list (is 9 the limit?).

Sorry about the multiple posts, but rules and restrictions are rules and restrictions (hint hint subtle hint).

As someone said to me today (Stormbringer?) congradulations on hijacking your own thread

! And about the D&D movie, it reminds me of a joke; Who was that bad actor that looked like Jeremy Irons anyway? One of my friends actually said that when he walked out of it, so...

I'd have to say the Dragons in Record of Lodoss War were the toughest reptiles i've ever seen. Narse, the Dark Dragon was especially crazy and Shooting Star's diet consisted mostly of humans.

Dragonslayer is the movie the band slayer named themselves after. They were originally Dragonslayer, decided it sounded cheesy, and shortened it to Slayer. FYI

I'm quite surprised by the popularity of Reign of Fire. I quite enjoyed it, but it needed 1: more of an epic scale (ie actually show what happened in the intervening years), and 2: a level of tension somewhere approaching Aliens. (Sorry, but that's the shoe size a human vs dragon movie should try to wear. I wanted to see those soldiers really PANIC! Can you imagine Private Hudson trying to face off a dragon?)

Also, the dragon battle in D&D was by far the best thing about that stupid movie. RoF had 3 times the budget, but apparently less screen time for the dragons. Nonetheless, their dragons were far more lifelike than the rather stiff clockwork statues in D&D. I would not be surprised if a RoF dragon had more megabytes in one spike than an entire D&D dragon.

Smog from the Hobbit, bad cartoon, but smog was bad ass at least in the book.

What about the made for TV version of Merlin, or the Movie Version of Beowulf, or what about the Baski animated HOBBIT.

Here's a gratituous dragon joke:

What did the teenage critic say about the cute Lady Dragon in Shrek?

"She blows donkeys."
