Does this HS plan work?

We have approximately a half day for HS... I just did our fast passes today but I would like feedback on whether this plan is workable time-wise. We are doing the Star Wars breakfast the day that we leave and made a FP to do Rock Coaster that that morning so we are going to skip it this day. Not sure if my nine year old will be into it or not so I wanted to just keep the option open for that day instead. Thanks!

12:50 - 1:10 --- FP Lights, Motor, Action (thinking of doing FP because not sure exactly what time we will get there)

* Muppets

2:35 --- Mama Melrose Fantasmic Package Lunch (My parents want to do TS)

* Star Tours

3:55 - 4:55 --- FP Toy Story Mania

5:15 --- Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular

* Great Movie Ride
* Magic of Disney Animation

6:30 - 7:30 --- FP Tower of Terror

8:30 --- Fantasmic
 
The LMA amphitheater is huge. I doubt you'll need a FP. You will probably be better served using it for ST.

Your times right after lunch seem tight. Your TS meal will take at least 1 hour; that assumes you will be seated immediately. Perhaps try to FP ST after LMA. Then, squeeze in the other non-FP attractions around the scheduled FPs.
 
You don't need a FP for LMA. It's a huge bleacher stand type theater, so you won't have a problem getting a seat even if you get there right before it starts. I don't know the tiers for HS; can you FP Star Tours with the others you have? It could be close to 4:00 by the time you finish at MM, so a FP for ST before your TSM FP might keep you on schedule for Indy.
 
Ok good idea! I wasn't sure about the LMA FP but I'm going to change it to Star Tours FP after LMA and then Muppets before TSM FP?
 

I have read that famtasmic is better viewed from the back seats and you wont get wet. For this reason you could save some money and just eat at Mama Melrose (which is excellent btw) without doing the package. Hard to argue with others about the LMA FP as well. Star Tours is great, but often lines are short, so be ready to swap this FP out if you arrive for it and line is 15 min or less for anything else later on.
 
Ok I'm glad that there is a consensus for LMA!
So now it looks like this:

1:20- LMA
1:35-2:35- Star Tours FP
2:35- Mama Melrose
*Muppets
3:55-4:55- TSM FP
5:15- Indiana Jones
*Great Movie Ride
*Magic Disney Animation
6:30-7:30- Tower of Terror FP
8:30- Fantasmic dinner passes
 
Are you going on an evening with a 10 pm Fantasmic? You could hit the headliners an additional time or two each while the 8:30 show is underway. Your youngster might like that.

Mine like to snag a few re-rides with short waits.

Unfortunately there is only one show that night at 8:30... I wish we were going on a day that it was open later but hopefully the fact that it is scheduled to be a less crowded day according to touringplans & easywdw will help us get enough done.
