Differences and similarities.
• The similarities for the two institute is that they both seem to focus on the genre action.
• Although Paramount films are mainly targeting males.• Whereas Warner Bros have films like ‘The Hangover’
‘The Wizard of Oz’ and ‘The Great Gatsby’. These films will attract both sexes; male and female.

Warner Bros
• The Warner brothers produce high budget films like ‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows’. This film was very successful as it was a very well made film, the animations were very realistic. As well as a good story line. Harry Potter fans would automatically be attracted to this film.

Paramount Pictures
• Paramount Pictures produce films like ‘World War Z’. This film wasn’t as successful as other films they made like ‘The Titanic’. Even though they had a good casting with Brad Pitt, the story line wasn’t that impressive. The film wasn’t that different to other films that have been made.

Which is more successful?
• From my research, I think that Warner Brothers are more successful as they have made higher budget films, which have become very successful.
• A lot of their films have good story lines. Unlike Paramount's production ‘Paranormal Activity’.
