The FBI Warning Screens Wiki
Set up in 1997, their releases were originally distributed by Universal Studios Home Entertainment until 2005. After the acquisition of DreamWorks by Viacom in February 2006, the distribution rights were shifted to Paramount Home Entertainment for a while. But since the studio's split from Paramount in 2008 and the distribution agreement with Walt Disney Studios through Touchstone Pictures in 2009, DVD and Blu-ray releases of their newer films are distributed by Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment through Touchstone Home Entertainment; however, distribution of DreamWorks' older library still resides with Paramount. These are the warning screens used by the company.
