I was in the college program from Sept 2011-Jan 2012 at the Star Tours Ride, and I have to say, you never get sick of Hollywood Studios. Literally, never would have chosen another park or attraction to work at!

1. Eating at the Brown Derby and feeling like a stahhh!
2. Eating (anywhere) and at Hollywood & Vine JUST to get your Fantasmic VIP pass.
3. Star Tours all together, but messing around mostly with the Storm Troopers before they hit the stage at the beginning of the Star Tours Ride. (I always used to mess with them when I was at the College Program. Never got old!)
4. Walking towards the Tower of Terror and smelling fresh caramel apples.... aaaaand gorging on more sweets in the sweets shops.
5. Sci-Fi movies.. Done.
6. Seeing NYC- Empire State Building and Subway station while walking from the Muppets towards the Backlot Tour. (I'm from NYC!) So I get a little taste of home.
7. The old Hollywood actors/plumbers making everyone laugh out on the streets around Sunset and Hollywood Blvd. Just adds so much energy to the parks.
8. Being able to walk down Hollywood and Sunset Blvd because there is no crazy parade, so they have time for admiring its old fashioned buildings without rushing.
9. Keeping GMR old school, and not adding new movies to it. The whole point is OLD Hollywood CLASSICS. I mean, they need to do some refurbishment, and maybe fix some of the scenes, but keep the old movies ALIVE!
10. LOL having a Pizza Planet. That's just -- fabulous. And it's not a dark indoor arcade, it's a sit-down area where you feel super Toy Story-like. Ugh, I LOVE this park!

Getting to Toy Story before official park opening. It's happened twice to me.

The rumor is out there as part of the overall DHS rumors (Star Wars, Pixar, etc). Nothing confirmed. One rumor had it going to Downtown.

 

[Blackburn23]

Arguably the best 2 rides in WDW - RnRC & ToT, the best show - Fantasmic

and

the Pluto Planet sign!!!

The fixture of DHS for me!!

In no particular order:

1 - Hollywood/Sunset Blvd at night with the old town music (one of my best Disney spots!)
2 - Indiana Jones Stunt Show (never gets old for me)
3 - Movie montage at the end of the GMR
4 - The entrance area with the old Gas Station to the right (just like my Grandpas old station)
5 - The Shops on Hollywood and Sunset Blvd (some of the best in part shopping outside of the Emporium)
