food IS a theme park
Disney’s Hollywood Studios is FULL of fan-favorite rides and attractions.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
But have you ever stopped to think about which ones YOU think are underrated or overrated? We asked our readers to rank ALL of the rides in Hollywood Studios one by one. Some of the answers were a little surprising, and others were very much expected, but let’s see what you said!
One thing we’ve noticed in all our years going to Disney World is that not all seat rides are good ones.
Welcome to Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
We’ve told you the best seats in the house in Magic Kingdom and EPCOT, now we’re moving on to TinselTown! We’ve already told you about everything you shouldn’t miss at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, but now we’re going to let you know which seats on rides are the absolute best and worst there!
We’re not going to lie — we were very sad to see The Great Movie Ride go away at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway
But we also can’t deny that its replacement, Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway, is a lot of fun, and quite a technological wonder! From the trackless ride vehicles to the cool 3D effects that don’t require 3D glasses, it’s definitely an attraction Disney can be proud of! And now there’s a new dress celebrating the attraction in the parks and online.
We’ve been following the construction carefully on Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, which is a new ride that’s coming to EPCOT.
Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure Area in the France Pavilion
And now that the construction walls are down in that area of the France Pavilion, we hope we’re getting closer and closer to the adventure opening. And on top of a portion of the expansion opening, TONS of new Ratatouille merchandise just arrived, too!
Disney parks have some absolutely amazing rides.

We certainly have our favorites. Attractions, old and new, wow us in a ton of different ways. Well, there are some Disney parks attractions that never came to be. But what about ideas that never even got off the ground? We’re looking at 25 REJECTED Disney ride ideas that never came to fruition!
The wait times have continued to drop and drop since the holiday season ended.
Tree of Life Carvings
And this week, almost every single average wait time went DOWN. It may be the end of January, but these wait times seem so low! Today, we’re going to take a look at the average wait times in ALL four parks!
We’re almost a year out from when Disney first closed the theme parks in March of 2020, and there are still a lot of health measures in place.
Cinderella Castle
During your Disney day, you’ll see mask mandates, temperature checks, and social distancing. Now, Disney has added a new update to their existing social distancing policy that specifically speaks to larger groups.
One of the most popular rides at Disney World is Rise of the Resistance in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Rise of the Resistance
It’s such a hot ticket item that Disney has a special boarding process in place where guests must join a virtual queue to get a boarding group via the My Disney Experience app. TYPICALLY the boarding groups vanish in mere SECONDS…but not today.
We’re already seeing a lot of big changes happening at Disney World in 2021!
Hall of Presidents
From Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure getting closer to opening at EPCOT to continuing updates from Disney on the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser (aka the Star Wars hotel), a lot is already going on at the beginning of the New Year!
IMPORTANT UPDATE: Mask rules, distancing guidelines, and more have changed significantly in Disney World recently. Masks are now no longer required for fully vaccinated guests in most places, and distancing guidelines are being reduced. We’ve seen distancing markers removed in some line queues, pre-shows return to some attractions, and more changes being made. Many attractions are now loading guests in every row just as they used to prior to the pandemic-related closures. We expect that more changes will continue to take place on Disney World’s rides throughout the upcoming days and weeks as the updated mask and distancing guidelines are put in place.
If you’re headed to Disney World soon, there are a few things you need to know about like Park Pass reservations, which restaurants are open, and updates on the latest mask policies.

But, another important thing you’ll want to be aware of is how Disney is handling loading its attractions while keeping social distancing in mind. Will you be sitting with another party on Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run? Are there plexiglass barriers on this ride or the other? We’re breaking it ALL down for you today.
