'''Logo:''' On a black background, a {{Font color|red|red}} line stretches out across the screen. It then flashes rapidly, seeming to vibrate and form more lines above, making the words "NEW LINE CINEMA". as the screen then begins to flash {{Font color|red|red}}. When the flashing is finished, the logo is now {{Font color|red|red}} with black segmenting (a la the CBS/Fox Video logo), and the word "FROM" can be seen on the top-left of the logo. It is then wiped away at the end. | '''Logo:''' On a black background, a {{Font color|red|red}} line stretches out across the screen.

'''Logo:''' On a {{Font color|blue|blue}}/white ethereal background, a black box zooms and rotates from the screen. In the background, several filmstrips float by, as the box is connected by two filmstrips. One of them attaches itself to the side of the box, and the other tilts to half a right angle and attaches itself to the top right. The background fades to black, as it glows {{Font color|blue|blue}} while the company name fades in underneath. | '''Logo:''' On a {{Font color|blue|blue}}/white ethereal background, a black box zooms and rotates from the screen.

'''Logo:''' It's essentially a CGI redux of the previous logo. A black box rotates out from an extreme close-up, with a {{Font color|blue|blue}} light in the background. Various filmstrips zoom past the box as two more filmstrips rotate in, forming like before. The {{Font color|blue|blue}} light dies down to create a glowing effect around it, as the company name zooms out from below in a ITC Garamond Cond Book font. The respective company byline fades in underneath alongside a line above. | '''Logo:''' It's essentially a CGI redux of the previous logo.

*On ''Dumb and Dumber'' The logo has more glowing blue around the box and filmstrips. This only appears on the theatrical version of the movie. The 2006 Unrated DVD and current TV airings plaster this with the still 2003 logo with the TimeWarner byline. | *On ''Dumb and Dumber'' The logo has more glowing blue around the box and filmstrips.

It begins with a high violin note that rapidly but calmly descends with many notes, ending with a quiet chime/string theme. | '''Music/Sounds:''' A beautiful string fanfare composed by Michael Kamen.

''' | '''Nickname:''' "The WB Shield/New Line Filmbox Transformation" | ||
'''Logo:''' We travel through the clouds to see the 1998-2020 Warner Bros. Pictures shield and the byline zooming in toward the screen. It then breaks up into pieces, leaving the {{Font color|blue|blue}} part of the shield and the byline behind as the camera pans from a daytime sky to a cloudy night sky (with the sun being seen for a split-second) as the pieces turn into the filmstrips and squares (now rounded at the edges) of the filmbox logo, with the reflection of the shield seen a few seconds. All the letters of the company name, now in a stylized flat font, appears flipping in as it shines and the byline fades in below, slowly zooming back. | '''Logo:''' We travel through the clouds to see the 1998-2020 Warner Bros.

''' | '''Nickname:''' The WB Shield/New Line Filmbox Transformation II" | ||
'''Logo:''' Same concept as the previous logo, but with the 2021 Warner Bros. Pictures logo instead. As the camera gets closer to the shield, it shines as the WarnerMedia or Warner Bros. Discovery byline fades out. It then breaks up to transform into the NLC design from before (now colored in white) on a more realistic sunset background (with the reflection of the WB shield now removed). The byline fades in below, although much earlier this time just as the filmbox finishes forming as it shines while it slowly zooms away. | '''Logo:''' Same concept as the previous logo, but with the 2021 Warner Bros.
