Hollywood Studios wait times for Wednesday, December 2, 2020

Rise of the Resistance did not have a great afternoon.  Rise stopped calling boarding groups around noon, and didn’t resume calling boarding groups for almost two hours.  That restart lasted about fifteen minutes, and the ride shut down again just past 2 p.m., for over an hour.  As I write this, the ride was in the middle of a third hour-plus outage.
