Whats the earliest you would book Mama Melrose?

-1:10 arrival at MCO
-Using DME to Boardwalk
-Walking to Hollywood Studios

Right now there are no ADRs offered for the F!DP after 3 pm for some reason and I've got one for 2:55 but that leaves no margin for error. As later times become available I'm trying to figure out how far back i want to move it.

You may want to also post this on the Transportation Forum.
The rule of thumb is about 90 minutes from deplaning to your resort. Then you will need time to stow your Carryons with Bell Services. The walk to DHS is about 15 - 20 minutes. Then you need to go through bag check and the Tap Styles and finally walk all the way back to MM.
We never make an ADR sooner than 5 hours after scheduled landing.

Honestly, I wouldn't do it at 2:55om.

Usually the fantasmic package dinner times cut off early (like 4:45/5pm?) so it may be difficult to snag a later time.

I don't want to do it at 2:55 but right now nothing is available past 3 pm. F! is scheduled at 9 pm and for some reason they just haven't opened any time slots later than 3....so I grabbed a 2:55 for the time being because it's the latest I can get.

I was curious what the earliest others would feel comfortable booking. We want to eat as early as possible..I've never missed an ADR 3 or more hours outside of MCO arrival (even with delays) and curios how close others have cut it.

The absolute earliest ADR I would be comfortable with would be 4:10. No way would I take one less than 2 hours out.

Yeah, that's my thinking....4:10

Even if we just walked off the bus to HS and checked in later that evening I think I'd feel comfortable at 3 hours.
