Am just a regular SAG-AFTRA voter this year, not on nominating committee....my dvd arrived just 2 days ago, & in general for all of us, studios began to send them in the mail at the very end of January, digital screeners having been made available around the 18th. Such a strong ensemble, but could it be that it is SUCH a huge one, including all of the dancers & singers? Who knows, indeed...I thought Ansel Egort & Rachel Ziegler did heartbreaking work too.

Snowgrace, do you get screeners earlier if you're on the nominating committee? I'm wondering if the movie studios know who's on the committee and who isn't.

You are right, it's up to the studios what they make available & in what form. Nominating committees for film & television look at the long lists of names submitted by productions for consideration, view what content is made available by studios, & cast votes for who will end up in the final categories of nominees. So they receive their screeners usually beginning a couple of months ahead of when nominations are announced & the total body of members has access to screeners (for just the nominated work) & votes. It may well be that some dvds weren't ready back in late fall. For television & film, some content is only available through streaming all through till final voting is complete, in this case in late February.
