By the end of its lifespan, Fox's X-Men franchise was floundering at the Box Office, but even its worst failure has been redeemed by Sony's latest Marvel-based Box Office bomb. Fox's original trilogy was followed up by four prequel movies that took place in a new timeline. X-Men: Days of Future Past is the highest-grossing of these with a $747 million worldwide gross.

X-Men: Dark Phoenix also holds the unfortunate accolade of being Fox's worst-rated X-Men movie. Critics took aim at its inability to justify a second stab at the same plot that appeared in X-Men: The Last Stand, failing to do justice to the comic run on which it is based while feeling stale overall. Its failure to grip audiences made the franchise's migration to the MCU a welcome move.
By contrast, enthusiasm for Sony's Spider-Man Universe has dwindled to catastrophic levels, with general attitudes surrounding its upcoming Kraven the Hunter being pessimistic at best. Despite Venom and Venom: Let There Be Carnage being box office successes and garnering greater praise, the critically panned Morbius significantly marred Sony's reputation, and Madame Web has just added to that unfavorable track record.
