Life before the Marvel Cinematic Universe was something else. It’s astonishing to look back and see how far the genre has come. Films like Blade, X-Men, and Spider-Man helped make the foundation of the MCU possible. In this pre-MCU era of comic book cinema, studios including Fox, Sony, and Universal put their own spins on some of Marvel’s most iconic heroes. Granted, the quality of these projects varied immensely, from classics such as Spider-Man 2 to disappointing failures like Fantastic 4 and X-Men Origins: Wolverine....

Marvel Studios is no stranger to success when it comes to blockbusters, but somehow they keep upping the game.
