No more Warner Bros. previews

Warner Bros. studios have announced that they will no longer hold advance screenings of their movies in Canada to cut down on pirated copies. ” Within the first week of a film’s release, you can almost be certain that somewhere out there a Canadian copy will show up,” said Darcy Antonellis, Senior Vice President, Worldwide Anti-Piracy Operations for Warner Bros. Entertainment, in a release. “We regret having to cancel our screenings in Canada but our studio must take steps to protect not only our branded assets but our commitment to our filmmakers and to theaters all over the world,” said Dan Fellman, President, Warner Bros. Pictures Domestic.
