Incredible detail has gone into each of these attractions. The que itself for Toy Story Mania! has me entertained for the entire wait with all the attention to detail and creativity. It is so imaginative. From the board games to the animatronic Mr. Potato head - it's amazing. Visiting Disney is so memorable and the parks are so incredible that watching the movies associated with the attractions, shows and even meet & greets makes each moment even sweeter. You notice the tiny details from the movies they have brought to life. The magic is endless.
It is almost impossible to narrow it down to just 5 movies that you should see before visiting Hollywood Studios because this whole park is celebrating creativity and the movies we all love, but I had to try.
Top 5 Movies to see Before Visiting Disney's Hollywood Studios:
1) Toy Story (1996)
2) Star Wars Series (1977-2017)
3) Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)
4) Frozen (2013)
5) Fantasia (1999)
For those of you who love the movies, be sure to check these out as well and personalize it for your plan of attack on your next trip to Hollywood Studios.

What to Watch Before You Visit A Disney Park: EPCOT
I just love EPCOT. I love all the science, the educational stuff & don't get me started on how much I appreciate the detail of the World Showcase. While it isn't the most Disney movie themed park, there are still a handful that you would find helpful - especially if you are into meeting characters.
You've just gotta be prepared at Walt Disney World. From fast passes to dining reservations there is so much to do to get ready. If there is one park you can appreciate without having ever seen a Disney movie - it's EPCOT. But seeing these movies I've listed will help enhance the attractions and meet & greets with the characters.
The "fab five" of Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy & Pluto are dispersed throughout the park. They appear in Mickey's Roadsters currently, but since they are classics, there are countless movies & shows they appear in. Watching anything from the classic or latest Mickey cartoons, movies, etc will have your kids hugging these characters with ease.
Introducing kids - especially vital for the littlest of travelers - will make the Meet & Greets & Character Meals much less intimidating when they are familiar with the characters. Consider brushing up and even re-watching these movies to enhance your next visit to the happiest place on earth.
Top 5 Disney Movies to see before visiting EPCOT:
1) Frozen (2013)
2) Finding Nemo (2003)
3) Beauty and the Beast (1991)
4) Sleeping Beauty (1959)
5) Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937)
To personalized your experience, consider watching these movies ahead of your next visit depending on which attractions you are planning to visit. I appreciate the details, inside jokes, and decor even more when I have recently seen the films. I hope these tips enhance your next trip!
