New Line Cinema (also known as "New Line Productions, Inc." and formerly known as "New Line Cinema Corporation") originally started in 1967 by Robert Shaye and Michael Lynne, as an indie/low-budget film studio. They did not use a logo until the early 1970s. New Line was acquired by Turner Broadcasting on January 28, 1994; both merged with Time Warner on October 10, 1996. Their most successful films are ''The Lord of the Rings'' trilogy released in 2001, 2002 and 2003 respectively. In 2008, New Line became a genre and low-to-mid-budget unit of [[Warner Bros. Pictures]], shutting down as an independent studio under Time Warner after CEO Jeff Bewkes fired Shaye and Lynne as a result of the American box office failure of ''The Golden Compass''. The last movie produced by New Line Cinema as an independent company was ''Semi-Pro''. | New Line Cinema (also known as "New Line Productions, Inc." and formerly known as "New Line Cinema Corporation") originally started in 1967 by Robert Shaye and Michael Lynne, as an indie/low-budget film studio.

'''Logo:''' Same concept as the previous logo, but the 2019 Warner Bros. shield and the 2021 logo background is now used instead. When we get closer to the shield, it shines, and in a similar fashion to the last logo, the shield breaks up to transform into the New Line Cinema logo on a more realistic sunset background (using the same design from before, but the line between the text and byline is removed), now in white this time to match with the 2019 WB shield with the white outline (as well as the reflection of the WB shield is removed in the New Line filmbox logo). The 2019 WarnerMedia byline fades in below (although much earlier this time just as it finishes forming). | '''Logo:''' Same concept as the previous logo, but the 2019 Warner Bros. shield and the 2021 logo background is now used instead.

'''FX/SFX:''' Same as the last logo, but with updated visuals and effects. Awesome CGI done by Devastudios, who also worked on the other related on-screen 2021 WB logos. | '''FX/SFX:''' Same as the last logo, but with updated visuals and effects.
