We have always done World Showcase at night. It just seems that is when we naturally go there. Curios as to if anyone else has noticed a pattern of when it is better to do world showcase or Futureworld? Pros/cons of doing either at a particular time?

We never really mix as that is too much running back and forth plus it feels all wrong. lol
 
not sure what you mean by "better," but World Showcase is always emptiest right after it opens.

It opens at 11 Am but some of the bars and kiosks do not open until 11:30 or noon.
 
Yes, 11 am is the best time to go for less crowds. However, I normally like to do everything at Future World so we normally get to The American Adventure around 3 pm. I don't normally find World Showcase busy enough where I cant see everything I wanted. World Showcase gets busier around 4 pm because people start trickling in with dining reservations and people wanting to see the F&W Eat to the Beat Concert series which starts at 5:30 pm.
 
Maybe we're fast walkers, but we do both! Spend a couple hours in FW, then do a lap around WS when it opens. Go back to the hotel for an afternoon break, then repeat.
 

The typical way at least used to be that guests did the attractions up front first then eventually made their way to world showcase, so later was more crowded. But it would be interesting to learn if that has changed, from say a lot of people trying to have a meal there and then hanging in that area afterwards.
