Hollywood studios visit or not?

[Redrach1903]

We're going to go for extra evening hours to do ToT, RRC, Toy Story Mania, Star Tours and I think DH will want to check out the new Star Wars Launch Bay, but that's probably about it for this year. I could never miss it completely and that's simply because ToT is my ultimate fave!

We'll still visit but I'm thinking of heading to HS early in the afternoon so that we get a lie in and a relax by the pool.

Book fastpasses for TSMM, Star Tours and something else in the afternoon, join the standby queues for the Great Movie Ride, RnR (maybe) and the shows, look around the new Star Wars Launch Bay, and then stay until the evening to watch Fantasmic and the fireworks (if they are still on in April).

We will likely still go as we will be onsite the final week of our stay so will go. The likelihood is only for half a day though in the evening so we can do Fantasmic. A shame but just not enough to use a full day until the upgrades have all finished.

We will still go because of Star Tours (big Stars Wars nerd here ) and also Tower of Terror

We are definitely still going. In fact, it's the first park we are going to. We love Star Tours, Fantasmic, R&R, TSM, Muppet Vision, Beauty & The Beast and so on. We have the Ultimate ticket so will prob pop back and re-ride our favourites but not spend more than one all-dayer there.

We will be visiting more than once because we love it. My youngest will be nearly three so will love Disney junior. My daughter love TOT and Aerosmith. We all love toy story, star tours and bell show, even love great movie ride! Plus my must do is try a butterfinger cup cake lol. I am hoping many people will stay away so it's not too busy 😝

Will probably visit a few times as we will have 21 day tickets. I think there will be more closures though before we make it there in September.

[Guest]

The only problem the closures will cause us is that there may be more people trying to get on the rides we like. I wouldn't miss HS for anything as it still has three of the best rides in WDW

Here is a little map I did to show the areas that have been announced as closing. The vast majority of the park is still open as usual.

Red is backstage so off limits any way
Blue already closed (Basically the Backlot tour)
Green due to close by April 2016.

I'm going next week, going twice actually in the two week holiday, love HS! Still enough there for me!

BTW, some of the area in red was actually part of the Backlot Tour. There's a large beige building to the left of Toy Story Mania that supposedly held studios and the Backlot bus took you behind this to show them making costumes and the like. You then turned near the Earffel Tower just off to the top left of that beige building.
