I'm hoping for Dreamfinder and Figment.
I just told my DBFF that if they bring Figment back, we're going. That's all there is to it.

I know everyone is different. But I don't spend the cash to book a vacation on what "might" happen. I need a few details to go on. I would probably be tempted to book a special extra weekend to Disney for something concrete I really wanted to do. But not on a "might".
I know a lot of folks booked trips to the MK for the 40th anniversary last year and when it was over went "was that it"?
My guess is that this will be accepted with varying degrees of excitement based on where one lives and how hard it is to GET to Disney. For people who live within driving distance and have APs I can see it being very cool. But for someone who has to mobilize an army just to get there........... completely different.

There is a woman in the bottom left of the shot.
Haha when I saw the title of this thread when it first popped up I honestly thought it was someone making a sarcastic reference to the fact that Disney has reduced Evening Extra Magic hours to 2 hours. That's what it sounds like, what a weird name for a promotion!! I am no marketing person but I'm sure I could have come up with a better name given 10 minutes to think about it.
"Limited Time Magic"? I really dislike that. Sounds like an infommercial.

It sounds like there won't be calendars and schedules and announcements of these themes and events...and instead, the information will be "leaked" using online outlets and social media...which makes for unexpected, last-minute, hurry-or-you'll-miss-it, can't-believe-your-luck, did-you-hear-what's-happening-right-now magic!
This sounds so exciting to me.
Don't get me wrong, I am as hardcore a planner as most of us here. I plan out nearly every detail of our trip before we go.
But doesn't that dash of the unexpected appeal to you? The idea that despite all the planning and the show schedules and the meet-and-greet strategies and the parade viewing plans and the ADRs that have been in place for half a year...that something entirely unscheduled might reveal itself at the last minute? Something that you've never even read about?
It's this aspect of the promotion that I think is great! I hope they don't reveal calendars and schedules for these events; it would defeat the whole spirit of the theme! Clearly some dates have already been announced, but I hope that as the year unfolds, most of the events are kept as true magical surprises.
I know I would love to discover something entirely unexpected on my next trip! That's magic!

Sounds perfect for a local who can call in sick or schedule a spur of the moment vacation day and pop over to the park with their AP. Unfortunately....... that's not me........... or a huge number of other Disney fans.
