Alcon Entertainment targeted by FBI over stolen 'The Hateful Eight" screener

An Alcon Entertainment Executive says he hasn't even seen the Screener for THE HATEFUL EIGHT. Screeners are sent out from each union guild for voting purposes. The FBI traced a screener stolen & uploaded on the internet to an Alcon office. The western movie opens Dec. 25, 2015. 

Union members are complaining about watching screeners. Well, I was honored to be on the SAG nominating committee for TV with the SAG awards. I watched 70 plus TV shows & most were from screeners sent to me. I loved every minute of it & watched each DVD. Cable TV had the best written & best characters in that year 2010-11.

As far as screenings at theater's go. Nominating committees get first preference because they nominate. If you weren't on a committee, then you better get there early because it fills up fast. SAG always sent us emails on where & when to go. I jumped because I met other committee members at theaters for TV cast Q&A.
