What is your favorite thing to do in Hollywood Studios? Is it a particular ride? Do you like one of the shows? Maybe it's the place you HAVE to eat everytime you visit.

If you are talking at WDW...it is MY FAVORITE PARK!!!!!

Fav ride: the great movie ride!
Fav show: aw, that's a toss-up between Fantasmic and 4 for a Dollar before Beauty & the Beast...we have nearly all their CDs
Fav restaurant: there are several - the Italian place out back, Pizza Planet (I dunno why) and the one from the 50's with the TVs.

When I walk into this park I feel like "I am home" and I have NO IDEA WHY....
The other thing I like about this park is riding the boat from it to Epcot....a nice ride to relax on when you are tired (and a short cut to Epcot's fireworks after Fantasmic!).

My son absolutely loved the Lights motors Action show. The parade is fabulous. We went to the Hollywood and Vine character breakfast, which was nice. Our fave place was the Honey I shrunk the Kids playground...stayed there for a REALLY long time! :)

Tower of Terror, hands down! And I haven't been able to ride it the last 2 times I went becuase I was alone with my son who did NOT want to ride it! Next time, though, I am going no matter what!

Hey Meredith,
Our family's favorite thing HS - Star Wars Weekends. Can't beat it!!! The whole park turns into Star Wars. This summer was awesome. We actually to fast passes and got autographs/pictures with Warwick Davis (Wicket) and Amy Allen (a Jedi Master) I can't spell her character name!

My son wore his Yoda costume that Grammie had made last Halloween. The characters responded to him so well. This year, SW was every weekend in June, in past years it was the last 2 in May and the 1st 2 in June. I actually had to have the DVC vacation planner on the phone find out when they were when I booked reservations. Disney is usually so good about putting info on the web site. But this year it was not up as to the dates ahead of time.

Anyone with kids into Star Wars has to take the time to go to this event. I have pictures on myspace, they do a Star Wars Parade, Padawan Mind Challenge (trivia contest for kids), SW characters all over the park, Wicket's Warehouse with merchandise some limited edition, and each weekend they have celeberties to host the event.

Don't get me wrong, we love the rides, and the new Toy Story Ride is definite thumbs up! Fantasmic is awesome, but for a SW fanatic, this is almost better than Comi-Con in California!

Pict: Amy Allen, Warwick Davis, Matthew Wood

I would have to say The Beauty and the Beast show is my all time favorite. Then I would say Fantasmic follows in a close second. I second the Pizza Planet, just love that pizza for some reason.

I think I shared this somewhere else, but we have been to HS so many times, that I get a little bored. I know that sounds so horrible.

So I LOVE to sit in the little coffee shop by the Sci-Fi Diner and get a warm cup of coffee and sit and read a fun Disney book while my fami does Start Wars or the Muppet 3-D.

I still haven't made it to Star Wars Weekend and I am a HUGE SW geek. Hopefully one year we will make it to it. I love Rock N Rollercoaster! Tower of Tower is amazing but I get such anxiety before I go on it and all during, it's the dropping thing... I prefer loops. hehe
I LOVE Fantasmic! Amazes me every single time. I hear tehy cut back to only doing it 2-3 times a week now instead of every night :(
Oh Pinapplegirl53, Great Movie Ride is my fav as well. I just love the whole old Hollywood thing and I am such a sucker for Audio-Animatronics :)

And how could I forget... the Magic of Animation! It's my all time favorite. I went to school for animation and design and have always admired it, especially classic, handrawn 2D style. :) Also the Muppets area cause I adore them
