Paramount put out a poster to celebrate its 100th anniversary, with very simple, iconic logos denoting its best-known movies for the years those movies were released. You can find the poster here - how many of the movies can YOU name?

I can name several, but I won't do it here and spoil anyone's fun. If you DO decide to name some movies in the comments, say what row it's in and what year it's over, at least, so others can see it for themselves if they like - i.e., "Titanic" for 1997 is in the very top row (OK, I just spoiled one for you, but come on, who doesn't know that one? LOL).

The older movies are easiest for me. I see someone recognized Groucho Marx, row 8, the movie is Duck Soup.

Too fun. I tried to see how many I could name before I looked at some of your answers. Is there a website that has all the answers. I had no idea Paramount did all those movies. Did you hear they pulled GI Joe from the summer line-up and now the studio will not have any movie coming out this summer? They were afraid there were too many blockbusters and that it wouldn't hold up against them.
