There was a shot when they're rowing into the pirate cave and they spot a (dead) skeleton with a dagger through him and a crab moving around him, on a sandy beach. This is the same as the first scene in the ride after the waterfalls.

There was also the shots of Jack steering the ship in a storm at night, and this is similar to the skeleton on the deck of the shipwreck during the storm.

There also was some dialog. During the ship-to-ship battle, Barbossa quotes some of the dialog to his men that is the same as the Pirate on the Ship in the ride: "Strike yer colors, ye bloomin' cockroaches!"

Also, in the Pirate town, the Pirate who was on the ship at the beginning says a rif on "says you, says I". I can't remember exactly what he says, but it's based off of the dark cave narration about the cursed treasure in the ride:

"No fear of evil curses says you. Properly warned ye be says I. Who knows when that evil curse will strike the greedy beholders of this cursed treasure."

Lot's of clever stuff in the movie. I'll have to see it again!
