Hollywood Studios stays open till 9:30 today, which makes it the evening crowd's playground. The Magic of Disney Animation opening is drivin' the buzz — grab the limited-release opening pins and the Baymax Sipper in the reimagined Animation Courtyard before they're gone. Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance is your headliner (Single Pass $25–$35), so rope-drop it, then chase the new characters through the day. Mobile checkout may be landin' at Celebrity 5 & 10, so watch for faster shopping. Ratings sit high (score 8, avg waits near 56), so ride early and shop late. A-hyuck, that's a full day!
