You’ve decided you’re going to stick it out all day at Disney’s Hollywood Studios and not park hop and now that you’ve made that decision, you’ve got important choices to make.
Hollywood Studios
Should you stop to grab a snack first? Is it better to browse the shops in the morning or in the afternoon? No, no, no…you’ve got to hit the rides! But which one is the best? We’re here to help you decide.
We’re pitting all of the rides and attractions in Disney’s Hollywood Studios against each other for the ultimate test! Only one can be crowned the winner in the ultimate battle on our Instagram — and here are the results of Round 1!
First up we’ve put Muppet*Vision 3D to the test against Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway. This might seem like apples to oranges since Muppet*Vision 3D is a show and Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway is a ride, but both are equally enjoyable family-friendly attractions.
Nothing can stop us now!
Sorry Muppets, better luck next time, Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway ran full steam ahead and took 83% of the votes with them!

Next, it was time to put two show experiences up head to head. This round’s choices were either Walt Disney Presents or Fantasmic!
Fantasmic by a landslide!
Of course, Walt Disney Presents is a classic walk-through attraction — bonus points for the theater previews at the end of the experience but it just couldn’t hold its own against a nightmare Fantasmic taking 87% of the votes!

We’re committed to the thrill with this next round between Lightning McQueen’s Racing Academy and Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular. Both are amazing high-tech shows but ultimately…
Another landslide
… Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular walks away with the prize this round and an 82% vote!

Ooooooh, it’s like an intergalactic war between these next two choices for a ride. Which one do we choose Alien Swirling Saucers or Star Tours?
Star Tours wins!
Well, sounds like we needed a galaxy far FAR away, and not just a spin around our own so Star Tours wins this round with a 63% vote…better luck next time our green little friends.

This one could get interesting, it’s the battle of the toys! Which one do we have time for? Toy Story Mania or Slinky Dog Dash?
What’s this?!
… oh no! A TIE! Alright let’s run the brass tax on this one…
Just BARELY broken
… ok, looks like the Slinky Dog Dash BARELY slides into that top slot by 43 votes. Sorry, Sarge doesn’t sound like we’ve got time to break plates with you, we’ve got some serious air to catch on this coaster!
How Fast is Slinky Dog Dash?
Ok, we’re made it out to Batuu in Galaxy’s Edge but we’ve only got time for ONE RIDE! Do we fight with the rebellion in Rise of the Resistance? Or do we help grab coaxium for Hondo on Millenium Falcon Smugglers Run?
Rise with the Rebellion!
Of course, by a landslide — certainly, 88% thought so — the obvious answer is go assist the rebellion… and get captured then ultimately rescued by the same resistance you went to help out naturally. Can’t blame us, it’s a pretty cool ride!
How Much Did Disney Spend to Build Rise of the Resistance?
If we weren’t already on a serious adrenaline kick, this next ride will put us there for sure… and what’s worse is they are neighbors! So here’s our choice: Rock ‘n’ Rollercoaster or Tower of Terror?
Going down?
Looks like we’re taking a rain check on those backstage passes to the concert, 57% of votes said we’ve got some vacancies to fill as we step into the Twilight Zone and take a service elevator instead of the regular one…what could go wrong?!
It Just Got 31% Harder to Get on Tower of Terror in Disney World
Shew, it’s been a day! Looks like we’ve got time for just ONE MORE attraction and this time, we’re winded. We’re sitting down to enjoy the last show of the evening so what’s it going to be? Beauty and the Beast Sing-Along or A Frozen Sing-Along Celebration?
We’re really torn on this, huh?
Uh-oh, another tie… looks like we need a closer look here.
wow, that was close!
By literally 36 votes, we’re headed off to hear the royal historians of Arrendale lead us in singing their anthems and retelling a beautiful story of how true love can thaw a frozen heart.

Horrible draw for Toy Story Mania and Slinky Dog, but putting them head to head only one could move on. I think had they been in separate sides of the brackets they both would make waves.
I can’t find the poll on Instagram. Is the next round available?
