1. Haunted Mansion
2. TTA Peoplemover
3. Enchanted Tiki Room
4. Living With the Land
5. Pirates

Back in May 2011 my family went during the week Pirates was closed for maintenance and the additions of the mermaid scene and Ian McShane's Blackbeard projection.
It didn't RUIN the trip for us or anything (we're not some kind of entitled @KATIEBUG101 types), but I've never felt that level of disappointment for any other closure.

Tower of Terror closing for a month for maintenance and a new ride profile? No big deal.
Big Thunder going down for five months so all the tracks can be replaced? Hey, it happens.
One of the classics closing for a week? Well that just SUCKS.

Dinosaur!
During our trip earlier in the month, the ride must've *just* closed down as we got to the entrance. So, naturally, the next day we went to AK literally just for Dinosaur... and the meerkats :p
Last year I went down a day early on a work trip so I could do the parks and a Halloween party. I spent almost the entire day riding Dinosaur and it was just perfect. Then a quick hop to do Tower, than Space Mountain all night in the extra darkness.

Been reading this whole thread and noticed a lack of the "new" rides, such as FOP or SSD.
Most of the favorites are the classic Disney attractions.
I hope someone at WDWco. looks at these lists of peoples favorites and wonders why the classic ones are the most mentioned?

I haven't been since 2010, so haven't had a chance to try some of the newer rides. But my list:

-The Great Movie Ride
-Ellen's Energy Adventure
-Disney Quest (not a ride, but awesome)

Sorry dude. Not sure if you entirely are in the know how, but Disney went ahead and scrapped all 3 of these. The Great Movie Ride building is still there (thank gawd) and will be reused for a new ride Mickey's Runaway Railroad. Ellen's is gone to make way for a Guardians of the Galaxy coaster, and Disney Quest has left us as well to make way for the NBA experience.

So, we have a thread recently posted here about meals that you absolutely can't do a Disney trip without.

What about rides? What ride or rides must you do every trip to Disney?

Pretend you walked into the Disney park(s) and were only able to do those rides that you absolutely have to do and left. What would those rides be?

I actually have 3 which are Space Mountain, the Haunted Mansion, and the Peoplemover.

What about you guys?

Splash Mountain
Test Track
Tower of Terror
