Has anyone heard what came out of the Disney press event yesterday (October 18th) in NYC? I have heard nothing....

A poster on another site described the content as "nothing earth-shattering", but they didn't say anything about what the content actually was.

According to the invitation for the October 18 event in New York, the Disney Company promised to reveal more about their "Year of a Million Dreams" and to preview the new "Finding Nemo" musical at Disney's Animal Kingdom.

The Associated Press (AP) released a news story about the "Finding Nemo" musical to newspapers all over the world. Here's an example from the Houston Chronicle: Disney to Make 'Finding Nemo' a Musical by Marcus Franklin, Associated Press Writer.

So, with this free publicity from AP for the "Finding Nemo" musical, Disney undoubtedly got their money's worth out of holding the press event.

Some other articles will probably appear today through this Sunday.

However, Disney fans who were expecting earth-shattering announcements will be disappointed.

does that mean they're not revealing plans for their all thrill ride, villian-based theme park?
