Disney’s Hollywood Studios has so much movie magic to offer. With movies stars, and Hollywood glitz and glam. Let’s take a look at the thrill rides of this Disney Park.
Some forget about the thriller and chills of Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and its small size compared to the other WDW parks sometimes keeps guests away. Not for much longer with the arrival of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.
If you are seeking thrills beyond the Studios park, check out the top Walt Disney World thrill rides. If thrills are NOT your thing (or the thing of someone you know who is Disney World-bound), consider heading over to Walt Disney World for wimps.

Slinky Dog Dash
- Height Requirement: 38 in
- Location: Pixar Place
- Speed: 64 km/h
