  2. How did the studio come about? Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. is an American diversified multinational mass media and entertainment conglomerate. The company was founded in 1923 by Harry, Albert, Sam and Jack L. Warner.

  4. Who owns the company? The first owners were Warner brothers. They were owning the company until 1967, when Jack decided to sold the company to ‘Seven Arts Productions’ for $78millions. It was renamed to ‘Warner Bros. — Seven Arts’. 2 years later it was sold again to Kinney National Company (the company got back its original name). Few years later, the WB company has bought the video-games company ‘Atari’ and the Six Flags theme parks. After that it was renamed to ‘Warner Communications’. In 2001 ‘Time Warner Inc.’ was acquired by AOL, changing the name of the new division to AOL Time Warner Inc., but due to the sharp income in 2002 the "AOL" disappears from the company name. In 2008 the WB has bought the ‘New Line Cinema’.

An interesting fact, all Warner brothers as young children emigrated with their parents to Canada from Krasnosielc, Congress Poland which become a part of the Russian Empire:) The first Warner Bros. studio was opened in 1918 on Sunset Boulevard, Hollywood.

In 1928 the Warner Bros. pictures had released the first all-talking feature and a little bit later (1929) they have also released the first full color film. The studio was also well known as the ‘gangster studio’, because of its many films about gangsters. In 1935 other studios quickly overshadowed the prestige of the WB, however, in the late 1930s, Bette Davis became the studio's top draw and was even dubbed as 'The Fifth Warner Brother’.
