I think they're giving us a sampler of the ones they KNOW about, and the rest will be last-minute additions later.
Yes, Paramount is comparatively lazy and does up-dumps of their DVD catalog titles, but this is still relatively new for most studios:
They may be just cashing in on Universal's sudden anniversary burst of classic-catalog--by taking some of the titles already mastered for Paramount's HD satellite and VOD, which don't need much advance notice or restoration--but after a couple long years of Warner's Disease, it's nice to see studios actually conquering their catalog fears again, and just in the last month or two.
A slow step, but an important one for the entire industry to copy each other.
