Tower of Terror. Quite creepy. Really sets the tone.

I definitely agree with nearly everyone here that Tower of Terror takes the cake. Can't really beat it... it's like being in an episode of "The Twilight Zone" (Which is a actually a shame for me, 'cause I find the actual ride portion to be one of the most unpleasant experiences at the park, but I love the pre-show and queue). But to feel like you're actually a part of the attraction is the most you can ask for from any of the rides at Disneyland.

But I have to give props to Muppet Vision 3-D and Monter's, Inc. Mike and Sulley to the Rescue. From YouTube videos I've seen of Toy Story Midway Mania!, the job done there looks pretty impressive as well. They're wonderfully immersive; I'm always taken with those rides that not only are great rides, but have impressive details in the queue.

ToT was freggin' awesome when I went. I took a pic in front of the sign and by one of the lamp-posts with the Tower in the background...

I wanted to get a pic of me in front of the HTH Poster (talking about the Tip-Top Club) but there were people in front of it already.

But yeah there's just so much stuff in the queue and outside that make the tower look so authentic. Besides, imagineers said that people have called the chamber of commerce in Anaheim to see if they could get reservations for it. That sounds like it appeals very real to anyone who's never been to DLR or WDW before.

Definetly TOT, the theme is aparent completely thru the whole ride and queue and it gets you nice and creeped out for whats to come.

I'd also say GRR area gives you the feeling that you are acually in a rapid expidition and the theming all comes together nicely.

I have to agree with Flik's Fun Fair. Those huge clovers and popsicle stick benches totally make me feel like I'm tiny. Plus having that HUGE tower in the background.
I've only been on TOT once and I was so scared out of my mind and concentrating on not puking that I barely even noticed the themeing!

Of course TOT. It just makes me feel like I took a time machine into yesteryear. After that I would also like to say Soarin' and MIMASTTR.

I would say Soarin' gives a great feel of being in the air force or just going on a plane trip. Also, ToT has a great little feel of being back in the 30's-40's, so that's what I enjoy as well.
