There is no denying the importance of what Fox did for the perception and reception of comic book adaptations from mainstream audiences, and following the merger that took headlines, the final Fox Marvel film, New Mutants, has officially arrived on Disney+.

They were films that were overloaded with campiness and were often delivered toa audiences with very low-quality productions that made them feel like more of a joke than a serious film endeavor.
All of that changed with the 2000s arrival of Spider-MAn, and the X-Men, the latter of which would kick off over a decade of Marvel films from Fox that would slowly shift how those films were perceived by viewers, and create a proof of concept that would be the MCU on their current path.
That era was a rather interesting one for comic book adaptation, and with the merger bringing Fox under the Disney umbrella, the final Fox Marvel film, New Mutants, has officially arrived on Disney+.
