Indiana Jones and the Temple of the Forbidden Eye, hands down!

I haven't been to WDW, but I'd have to agree with Bryan. Indy is the best attraction ever!

Soarin Over California I love the others, but there are similar rides at WDW. For example, Dinosaur is the same type of ride as Indy. Space Mountain at WDW has the same track as Matterhorn here. We have California Screamin, but WDW has Rock N Roller Coaster. Soarin is unique, but I guess not for long since they are creating one there also.

Soarin Over California is one of my favorite rides anywhere (and they are building a version of this at Disney World now). I also liked California Screamin. In Disneyland I liked the Matterhorn, and the Disneyland versions of Small World and Pirates of the Caribbean are much better than their Disney World versions.

A little background--I grew up in So. CA, not far from Disneyland, so was very familar with the park. Then we moved to the east coast, and we've been going to WDW with only occasional trips to DL. This past summer we were at DL, so we spent a lot of time talking about the differences between WDW and DL. We also compared the original rides to the WDW ones, and found in almost all cases that the DL version is superior to WDW in detailing and ambiance. For example--Haunted Mansion, Peter Pan, and It's A Small World especially stood out this way. Another advantage to DL--not one of the attractions that I recall dumped us out into a gift shop. Well....that's probably not the type of info you were looking for.... :-) If I had to pick the one best thing....Indiana Jones, with Mr Toad and the Matterhorn tied for second.
