A subsidiary of media firm Viacom, the company produces and distributes films through Paramount Pictures (Iron Man) and Paramount Vantage ("Arctic Tale"). It maintains the Paramount Pictures library of more than 1,000 films, including classic hits from the "Star Trek, Godfather," and "Indiana Jones" series, and releases about a dozen new titles annually. Paramount Pictures distributes movies on video and DVD through Paramount Home Entertainment. The studio ceased to own former subsidiary DreamWorks in 2008.
