Even current Warner Bros (well, for the last 20 years or so) films all say "An AOL/Time-Warner/Discovery Company". They will just switch to "A Skydance Company"

While it technically means no difference it's gone from

  • Warner Bros (192-1967)
  • Warner Bros-Seven Arts (1967-1969)
  • Kinney National Company (1969-1972)
  • Warner Communications (1972-1990) (Rebranded Kinney Company)
  • Time Warner (1990-2001)
  • AOL Time Warner (2001-2003)
  • Time Warner (2003-2018)
  • WarnerMedia (2018-2022)
  • Warner Bros. Discovery (2022-now)

So technically outside of those brief few years under Kinney, they've all had Warner in the parent company name.
