Nah, 12 our time. If you're going August it'll still be tricky to get one, at least at a reasonable time.

They open early their time. I think it's 11am fit ADR our time and an hour later for fast pass.

12th August first day in WDW. So yep it will be busy although seemingly it's "quieter" then the weeks before it.
Was sure last time we went I was booking the FPs in the early hours. Or It wwit first time we went. Anyway, will make sure I am fully clues up again by next month.

They changed it so that it's more like 7am US time, and about 11am for us.
It really is regimental these days - BUT take the positive side
In the 90's I remember routinely standing in hour long miserable queues, in the heat, burning to death.
These days, you barely queue more than 15 mins for anything if you get everything sorted a month before you go.
Get yourself on the Busy Day planner, decide which days you're going to which parks, then get as many fastpasses booked as you can. And remember, if you're there for park opening (ropedrop) you will get on 2 rides without any queue.

Knew I had done it early morning. Cheers.
It's true that it is regimented but it makes you days better if you plan ahead. Someone I work with thought I was over the top when I told them to plan their days and routes in parks for FPs. They didn't bother with any planning and she then informed me after her holiday that they didn't queue that much really and how seven dwarves had only been a bit more than an hour......... I just kept quiet about how we walked straight on that ride and did two or three others in the first hour or so at MK.

Yeah, staying at the same place mate. I go in a month, so you'll probably be there before us though.

Nice one, you're there a week before us. If you see some bairns in SAFC tops then that'll be us.

Toy Story land meddling with our plans. Hollywood Studios opening from 8am virtually every day once it opens including when we are there.
Makes our breakfast reservation pointless now. Had booked initially an expected quieter day knowing we'd get into the park before official opening so can get to front of queue for Jedi Academy registration. And no options available for earlier.

I enjoy the Hollywood & Vine character breakfast but Hollywood & Vine gets rubbish reviews overall. We used the early reservation to get booked onto Jedi Training.

Yeah reviews weren't great but whole plan was simply because we're staying at the Dolphin so easy to get in for breakfast and meant we could get Jedi Academy easy enough. Now we will have to queue early at the gates and run!!

Save you £120 on the breakfast at least.
