Also, apologies if I didn't include your favorite attraction. I could only list so many before it cut me off. Tried to aim for the ones normally mentioned in these discussions.
 

I love Pirates and HM, and might even argue that DL's Pirates is the greatest attraction ever built, but if I am being honest Indy is my favorite ride at any Disney park. Probably because I loved the movies so much (well the first 3) that feeling like I am inside one just adds that extra little bit of excitement.
 
Story Book Canals is really my third....well that and Snow White. I love those rides. Darn you for making me pick favorites. :)

I’m thinking I should have added that as an option now. To be honest, I haven’t ridden it in over a decade, but I will on this next trip. Been reading some top 10 lists around the web and it’s on a lot of them!

What have I been missing focusing on all the e-ticket attractions?

thank you for your Indy observation.....supportive of SWGE crowds.
 
At Disneyland only: Pirates, HM, and Indy were my votes. Pirates a tDL is definitely the best version, though I actually like HM better at WDW, so the DL version is not at the top for me. Indy is great in general.

Closely following would be Space Mountain, though I'm one of those rare people who prefers the WDW version, especially if there's an overlay, which I never care for.
 
as an Alphabet Book heritage visitor i ride Snow White three times in a row now, first because it is possible, second it reminds of the simple 60s visits and third, I believe in my heart that the Darling Bedroom and Dwarf cottage is how Walt envisioned every attraction to look from start to ending but stakeholders prevented him from taking the time and folks to create the elements that now make wonderful the bedroom and kitchen. That Kitchen is the best 10 feet at Disneyland!!!

I tend to focus on e ticket rides too and I've found I need to start branching out on the lesser ridden rides. Found the Canal boats about 3 years ago. Another little gem is the Mermaid ride in DCA. I rode that for the 1st time last October and it will be a definitely need to ride on my next trip.
 
1. Space Mountain
2. Snow White's Scary Adventures
3. Don't have a clear favorite. If Splash were up to WDW standards it would be 1. Maybe Mr. Toad's Wild Ride?
 
Only three votes for Jungle Cruise (including mine)?!?! C'mon people! :rotfl:

I would vote for JC as it's one of my favorites, but since it's DL only, I wouldn't put it above some of the others. The WDW version is better, though even at MK, I don't know if it's top 3, but maybe number 4.
 
1) Big Thunder
2) Space Mountain
3) Tie between Peter Pan and Pirates
 
Laugh at me but I loved Winnie the Pooh.

Does DCA count? Soarin is a top favorite too.
 
Adventureland.
I go through the attractions there first thing.
To me, it's the most spectacular and immersive area of the parks.
 
It's a Small World wasn't on there, so I'll just add that to my top 3 and make it 4. So, in no particular order...

1. Pirates
2. Matterhorn
3. Star Tours
4. It's a Small World
 
Space Mountain, Splash Mountain, Indiana Jones. Thunder Mountain Railroad was close. The others aren’t even close.
