New Warner Bros. Discovery logo is widely ridiculed

When two media giants merge, one would expect to find some stellar, achingly-up-to-date (or beautifully-classic) design. But, the recent merger between WarnerMedia and Discovery has spawned a bizarre new design that looks like it came straight from the '90s.

Jumping off the page with the kind of gold 3D art that could have been created in Microsoft's WordArt feature, the 'Warner Bros. Discovery' wordmark would certainly look totally at home in a Powerpoint presentation, but some think it is far off the mark for the next big media conglomerate (which aims to be the future of film, television and streaming). Perhaps they should have looked to one of our best free fonts for inspiration instead.
