I recently saw Good Omens (Not Discworld, but still a Terry Pratchett adaptation) and I really enjoyed it.

I was wondering what you think the best Discworld adaptations are? I saw some trailers but most of them didn't look that great to me.. But I'd love to give some a chance if there are any recommendations?

Troll Bridge, from Snowgum Films. Adapted from one of Pterry's short stories with Cohen as its main character. It's on Youtube. You can also see the making of documentary, the whole process is nothing short of miraculous.

It started as an independent production before catching the eye of Rob Wilkins (Pterry's assistant), I believe. And then the financing side was taken over by the estate so that the producers could work full time on the film.
