Paramount Home Entertainment (Warning Screens)

1st Warning (November 1979-June 1980)
Visuals: Over a dark blue background is the standard warning text in white:

LICENSED ONLY FOR NON-COMMERCIAL PRIVATE EXHIBITION IN HOMES. ANY PUBLIC PERFORMANCE, OTHER USE OR COPYING IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED. ALL RIGHTS UNDER COPYRIGHT RESERVED.

This follows the 1979-1980 Paramount Home Video logo.

Variant: A B&W version exists.

Technique: A cross-dissolve transition.

Audio: None.

Availability: Seen on Betamax releases and a few VHS releases from Paramount Pictures with the 1979 Paramount Home Video logo, including the first two Godfather films, Saturday Night Fever, Grease, Heaven Can Wait, Goin' South, Play It Again Sam, The Bad News Bears (1976 version), Prophecy, Harold and Maude (a 1984 printing retained both this and the preceding logo) and Catch 22. On the original 1980 VHS of North Dallas Forty, this appears right before the first scene of the film.

2nd Warning (July 1980-May 3, 1989, 1990, 2001, 2002)
Visuals: On a background of changing colors (, yellow,, pink, purple, and  again) a la the 1989-2005 MGM/UA Home Video logo is the same text as the previous warning in large white lettering, in an ITC Serif Gothic font.

Trivia: On the 1981 stereo release of Apocalypse Now, this is actually considered part of the feature for some reason.

Variants:
 * There is an early variation of this warning, where the text is smaller, in yellow instead of white, and in a different font (Blippo Bold), with another period that the normal version does not contain. This was used until 1984.
 * Some releases of black and white films used a variant of either of the two warnings that were in these exact colors.
 * On The Animated Adventures of Gene Roddenberry's Star Trek - Vol. 5 VHS (and most likely on other volumes as well), the warning text is in a Times New Roman font and is now set against a color-changing gradient background.
 * A Japanese version exists.

Technique: Computer effects.

Audio: None.

Availability: Seen on all releases from this era.
 * The Bauhaus variant can be seen on tapes including later prints of the original release of Grease. The variant is also spotted on Star Trek Paramount tapes from the 1980s (with "Paramount HOME VIDEO" on the side and the Gulf+Western print mountain on the other). The last release to use this warning was The Accused.
 * This was spotted on the 1991 VHS of 48 Hrs. and its 1993 reprint, as well as the 1992 VHS of Pretty in Pink.
 * This remained in print on some tapes well into the 21st century, as demonstrated by a 2001 printing of The Longest Yard (1974 version) and a 2002 pressing of The Bridges at Toko-Ri.
 * The Japanese version was spotted on a VHS of Roman Holiday.

3rd Warning (May 17, 1989-December 27, 2008)
Main Warning Screens=

Visuals: Cutting in from the feature presentation bumper of the era, there is a gradient blue wallpaper with copies of the Paramount logo all over it. There is the same warning text as the two before it in the ITC Korinna font (ITC Benguiat Medium for the Viacom version).

Background Colors:
 * May 17-October 16, 1989: Mauve/white gradient.
 * November 9, 1989-December 27, 2008: Dark blue gradient.

Bylines:
 * May 17-October 16, 1989: "A Gulf+Western Company"
 * November 9, 1989-May 16, 1995: "A Paramount Communications Company"
 * June 13, 1995-December 27, 2008: "A VIACOM COMPANY" (in the Viacom Wigga-Wigga font).

Variants:
 * The Canadian version has the word "WARNING" in underlined in white, along with modified warning text. Tapes from 1989-1995 have the text in a bolder sans-serif font.
 * A French Canadian variant of the aforementioned version exists. This can be seen on most French Canadian Paramount VHS releases after Malofilm Video ceased distribution of Paramount titles in the language.
 * On tapes released in 2002 that used the 90th Anniversary Feature Presentation bumper, the background is completely . A Canadian version exists.
 * On some S-VHS releases (such as Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade and Top Gun), a mixed-case Foundation Sans Light font is used. Not all S-VHS releases used this variant, however (such as Ghost) - they instead used the regular variant.
 * There are B&W variants for both the Gulf+Western and Paramount Communications versions.
 * On the 1998 VHS of Titanic, the 1991 VHS of Raiders of the Lost Ark, the 1991 Laserdisc of Apocalypse Now, the 1997 releases of the Godfather trilogy, and a different version of The Truman Show, the screen fades in from black, as there is no feature presentation bumper before it. A variant exists where it cuts in from black instead.
 * On PBS tapes released by Paramount, the background is completely black. A Canadian version exists as well.
 * Some PBS releases feature the warning on a purple gradient background, with the text in a similar bolder font without the shadow.
 * A pay-per-view variant exists, with the text slightly rewritten to be more television oriented.
 * Demo tapes ask the viewer to call a certain telephone number to help prevent video piracy. The text also scrolls up. On Dollman vs. Demonic Toys, the font is different, the word "forever" is between the words "shall" and "remain", and no "FEATURE PRESENTATION" follows it.
 * Two Academy screener variants exist, both telling viewers that the tape is being loaned for the purpose of personal review. The earlier variant was spotted on an Academy screener tape of Shaft (the 2000 remake), while the later variant was spotted on an Academy screener of Alfie (the 2004 remake).

Technique: A digital graphic. The demo tape variant uses 2D computer animation.

Audio: None, not counting the fade out of the Paramount fanfare on most releases.

Audio Variants: On Descriptive Video Service VHS's, a DVS narrator says the on-screen text. Usually, it starts with "Words appear", but there are exceptions:
 * On DVS tapes of Top Gun, Raiders of the Lost Ark, and Ghost, Wendie Sakakeeny goes directly into the warning text.
 * Four known tapes precede the text with "A warning appears": Rena Baskin on Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home and The Ten Commandments (1956), Nick Mills on El Dorado, and Peter Haydu on Clear and Present Danger.

Availability: Appears on all Paramount VHS and LaserDisc releases from the first release of Coming to America onward.
 * The Gulf+Western variant is a tough find as it was only used for eight months, but it can be found on Paramount's earliest releases from this era. The other two variants are easier to find.
 * The Paramount Communications version could also be seen with the next warning screen on 1990-1992 Prism Entertainment tapes co-distributed by Paramount.
 * The demo tape variant and the Academy screener variant are among the rarest. The demo variant made its first appearance on the 1992 demo VHS of Necessary Roughness, while the screener variant is known to appear on the tapes mentioned above, and may possibly appear on other Academy screeners.

Legacy: Akin to the 6th, 8th, and 9th Disney warning screens and the 1st and 2nd Fox warning screens, this is also one of the most recognizable warning screens.

4th Warning (1990-1992)
Same as the 1984-1992 Prism Entertainment warning screen.

5th Warning (October 6, 1998-)
Visuals: On a gradient wallpaper very similar to the previous one, now in a light or dark color is the same warning text in the same font as the 3rd warning, albeit smaller and worded differently.

Trivia:
 * When this warning was introduced, most of its appearances were at the start of discs. Starting in 2005-06, on mainline Paramount discs it was moved to the end, although it still appeared at the front of releases from the company's other labels, as well as new editions of older films from 2005-07 such as Witness, Clueless, The Truman Show, Funny Face, Breakfast at Tiffany's, and Coming to America (mainly on DVD; most Blu-ray releases have the warning at the end), and it is also at the front of the bonus features discs on some Blu-rays and, starting with Downsizing in 2018, some newer DVDs and Blu-rays (by 2021 this was almost all releases), as well as some UHDs with more languages apart from English, French, Portuguese, and Spanish (should you select them). During the original version's run, it appeared at the end of the following titles: the original release of Titanic, Tucker: The Man and His Dream, Blue's Clues: Blue's Big Musical Movie, Mission: Impossible II, the 2000 DVD release of The Conversation, Star Trek: The Motion Picture - The Director's Edition, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, the first two Beverly Hills Cop movies, Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius, Apocalpyse Now Redux, Zoolander, Vanilla Sky, and the 2001 Godfather DVD Collection boxset (although four of them used a variation of the original warning; see "Variants" for more on it). Prior to 2005-06, only a handful of releases (the original 2002-04 releases of Grease, Saturday Night Fever, Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, Star Trek III: The Search for Spock, Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, and Indiana Jones: The Complete Adventures) had the later version at the end.
 * On the 2006 DVD of Mission: Impossible II, the 1998 version appears on the first disc (which is a reprint of the original 2000 DVD), while disc 2 uses the 2002 version.

Variants:
 * Sometimes, the screen cuts to the same text in French or, until 2020, Spanish. The Spanish version was used with the original version on The Ghost and the Darkness, Breakdown, The Rugrats Movie, and the original release of Titanic.
 * A special variant of the original version exists on Star Trek: The Original Series - Volume 4, The Ghost and the Darkness, The Rugrats Movie, 5 Card Stud (all of which feature it at the front), the original release of Titanic, the 2000 DVD release of The Conversation, and the 2001 DVD releases of Apocalypse Now Redux and The Godfather DVD Collection, in which the warning fades in and out. Most of the aforementioned releases feature the English-language screen crossfading to French and Spanish-language screens, while the Star Trek volume and Apocalypse Now Redux just have the English-language screen, and on The Conversation, the Godfather set and 5 Card Stud, it crossfades to the French-language screen. On the Francis Ford Coppola-produced films (those being Apocalypse Now Redux and the Godfather set), this variant appears on the same files as the actual movies, but rewinding and fast-forwarding are disabled there as opposed to during the features themselves.
 * Starting in March 2002, the background would become completely navy blue.
 * Some releases have the background in.
 * Later widescreen releases have the text spaced out, though this has also appeared on full-screen releases.
 * Blu-ray releases have slightly different text with it being surrounded by an outline. HD-DVD releases have this same warning in the style of the DVD version.
 * On CBS Blu-ray releases from Paramount, such as the 2016 release of A Boy Named Charlie Brown, the background is black. This version has the text formatted differently. The 2012-14 Star Trek: The Next Generation Blu-rays have a variant of this, these releases use the font on that series' LCARS computer displays.

Technique: One or more digital graphics.

Audio: None.

Availability:
 * Seen on all Paramount releases since their DVD launch slate on October 6, 1998, CBS Home Entertainment/Showtime releases (which are distributed by Paramount but don't use the Paramount logo on the actual disc), and DreamWorks Animation releases from October 2006 to March 2013.
 * The gray-colored gradient wallpaper variant can be found on most Paramount DVDs released from October 6, 1998 to March 2002, beginning with Paramount's first slate of DVD releases (including Star Trek: First Contact, Top Gun, and Kiss the Girls).
 * Both versions of this warning screen have made appearances on some PBS VHS releases from Paramount in place of the previous one.
 * Starting in early 2013 with Paranormal Activity 4, Paramount DVDs (except those of Nickelodeon/Nick Jr. shows) use the next warning, though from early 2013 to 2018 this was placed at the end. Starting in late 2018, this warning began to appear at the beginning again (though the positions traded for a few years).
 * This does not appear on the 2019 DVD of Wonder Park, as the 2nd British warning is strangely used instead.

6th Warning (January 29, 2013-)
Visuals: Same as the warning screen used on many other studios' releases.

Variant: On later releases, the warning text is smaller. The piracy screen remains the same.

Surprisingly, this also appears on the US/Canada DVD of Wonder Park instead of the 5th American warning.

3rd Warning (2003-2006)
Visuals: The 1986-2003 Paramount logo animates, then it backs away revealing itself on the inside of a VCR. Some tape appears with the word "WARNING" scrolling on it. The screen cuts to several shots, in sync with the music. The screen cuts to one more shot that lasts in the rest of the warning. The warning text appears below in the ITC Coundit font. At the end of the tape, more detailed warning text appears scrolling up like the credits of a movie.

Technique: CGI.
