Things to do in Disney's Hollywood Studios

Disney's Hollywood Studios · About 18 minutes, start to finish · Lightning Lane Single Pass $20-$25

The best ride at Disney World, in my opinion: a multi-part experience where you get captured by the First Order and escape. Height is 40 inches, it's long, and it breaks down a lot, so buy the Single Pass or ride early.

The same 0 to 57 mph launch and inversions in the dark, now with the Muppets and the Electric Mayhem on the soundtrack. Height is 48 inches, and the single rider line is the move if you don't mind splitting up.
