What are your favorite attractions in WDW?

[ScottlovesDisney]

I haven't seen a listing on this so why not start one? What are your 10 favorite attractions in WDW? Dying to read everyone's choices! (And please no criticisms! There's already an "overrated" thread somewhere!!!!) Here's mine:

1. Soarin Love everything about it...the music in the Q, the Mickey Ears in the stowaway in the video before you board, the liftoff, the scenes, the smells and did I mention the MUSIC??

2. Space Mountain Has held the test of time for me, plus the last two times I was there (Sept 2011 and December 2011) I was able to ride this over and over and over again! Plus it was my mom's favorite ride so it holds a special place and memory in my heart

3. Splash Mountain I think this is the best themed story of any attraction in WDW. Love the water, the score, the drops and that the ride is over 10 minutes long!!

4. Haunted Mansion Another classic that has held the test of time AND improved!! The attic scene was a great addition and the outside Q is one of the best!!!

5. Tower of Terror I so wanted this higher but the previous 4 are tough to beat for me. This is the most thrilling ride for me and I love the build up of mystery in its story and ride execution. Not knowing when you're going to free fall or the doors open up to the outside world are incredible!!

6. Mickey's Philharmagic All of those wonderful Disney songs with top notch 3D!! This is the most heartwarming burst of nostalgia for me.

7. Dinosaur Thrill a second ride that's loud, bumpy, wild and exciting and there's never been a wait for me, so bonus points!

8. One Man's Dream I'm a sucker for history and this is a MUST DO every time I'm at WDW. I just let Walt's words, actions and dreams wash over me. And the short movie is just perfect (and, if you're really tired and have seen it as many times as I have, a great chance to catch some needed zzzzzs). I hope they don't do away with this.

9. Peter Pan Pan is still one of my fave Disney movies so this has a special place in my heart. I haven't seen the new Q but I can't wait to check it out. I'll even pass up fastpass to do so!!

10. People Mover This last spot was tough, a toss up between Test Track (the old version, havent seen the new), Living With the Land and Toy Story Mania. I went with PM because it's a soothing ride for weary travelers, a peaceful ten minute break that's also a lot of fun. It serves many purposes: people watching, a great view of Tomorrow Land, a slice of Disney History, resting or even catching some zzzzs!

What are yours???

Star Wars fireworks - i love fireworks, and they were great
Rock n roller coaster- the launch, the loop, the corkscrew are all so much fun
Tower of Terror- love it all. theming/anticapation/drops
Buzz- i know most people like TSM more, but I love Buzz. It's more fun to me and a MUCH shorter wait
Expedition Everest- rode it for the first time in August, it was fun, not quite as fun as RNRC though
Philarmagic- i think it's a good show and a nice relax. plus there hasn't been a wait while we were there
MSEP- really fun and love the lights on the floats
7d- don't think it's worth the wait honestly, but it's a fun/cute ride
Test track- liked the older one better, but it's still fun. Also don't mind the line as it's indoors and seems to move fast
Celebrate the magic/wishes- not as fun as the fireworks at HS, but still love it

don't know this is "on theme" here....but IMO the single greatest thing to do at WDW is the candlelight processional at Epcot...I try and make the trip for just a few days in December each year to see it (that is separate from the Family vacation).....to be honest< i think I would go to Disney on my own to see it if no one else could go!!!

That being said....i am a sucker for Pirates of the Caribbean.....just did the one at Disneyland in february and it was even better then Orlando
