'''Paramount Pictures Corporation''' -- often just called "Paramount" -- is an American film production and distribution company. Founded in 1912 and currently owned by media conglomerate Viacom, it is the oldest existing American film studio (though the predecessor of [[Universal]], the Independent Moving Pictures Company, predates it); Paramount is also the last major film studio still based in the Hollywood district of [[Los Angeles]] (again, Universal is in Universal City, which if incorporated into [[Los Angeles]] would become North Hollywood). Paramount has been consistently ranked as one of the top-grossing movie studios, most recently making [[Author's Saving Throw|a comeback]] as one of the backbones of Hollywood. Its [[Vanity Plate]] is <s>a</s> [[Iconic Logo|''the'' Mountain]].
Formerly the distributor of [[DreamWorks]] releases, it still handles the films of [[Dreamworks Animation]], though this deal has broken.{{context|reason=Do they or don't they? Please clarify.}}
