On February 28, 2008, the company became a genre and low-to-mid-budget unit of [[Warner Bros. Pictures]], shutting down as an independent studio under TimeWarner 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 them as an independent company was ''Semi-Pro''. Most of their independent output is owned by Warner Bros. Discovery; however, many of their acquired product, including most of their foreign films, are currently owned by other companies, and the television rights to some of their early-to-mid '90s features, including ''The Mask'', ''Dumb and Dumber'', and ''Mortal Kombat'', lie with [[Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer]] through [[Epic Productions]] and its Alpha Library Company.

'''Logo:''' On a black background, a {{<span class="error">Expansion depth limit exceeded</span>|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 {{<span class="error">Expansion depth limit exceeded</span>|red}}. When the flashing is finished, the logo is now {{<span class="error">Expansion depth limit exceeded</span>|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 {{<span class="error">Expansion depth limit exceeded</span>|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 {{<span class="error">Expansion depth limit exceeded</span>|blue}} while the company name fades in underneath.

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

**The later variation slightly redid the logo to look more updated, thus no freeze frame was needed. The brightness and the lighting effects have been improved drastically. Additionally, the byline has been redesigned to look less chyroned in and the logo also now fades out smoothly. However, if you look extremely carefully at the 2003 TimeWarner version, the shining effect continues but the light behind the filmbox freezes.

'''Logo:''' We travel through the clouds to see the 1998-2022 Warner Bros. Pictures shield and the byline zooming in toward the screen. It then breaks into pieces, leaving the {{<span class="error">Expansion depth limit exceeded</span>|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 boxes (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:''' 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 again, although much earlier this time just as the filmbox finishes forming as it shines while it slowly zooms away.
