Hmmmm... tough one... if it weren't for you saying animated feature, I would have said Coutry Bears would be one.

Dinosaur is one; "Aladar the igunadon" Not sure what the other one is though.

Would Haunted Mansion be one? I know it's not animated, but many of the ghosts are animated. That may count.

Sleeping Beauty Castle at Disneyland opened before the film was released. It had the same name, and featured animation from the movie before it was released. I do not know of another one.

Well, since Animal Kingdom opened in April of 1998 and the Disney/Pixar movie "A Bug's Life" opened in November of the same year, doesn't "It's Tough to be a Bug" count because it features Flik and Hopper? The other attraction that came to mind, which has been already mentioned is the then-called "Countdown to Extinction", which freatured the iguanadon two years before he was known as Aladar in the movie "Dinosaur".
