Right, Fox. Ugh, what a mess.*sold to FOX, not Sony. Sony only had the Spider-man character. Fox had X-Men and related characters, plus Fantastic Four, Ghost Rider, SHIELD and Daredevil.

I misread the datea filing from 2002 is fuel for 2022? From a time when it was very different people running the show? How?
When GotG came out the response was "who?". A brilliant trailer, talking Raccoon and walking tree changed that. PLus Chris Pratt's natural charisma.
Guardians was a true sign that Marvel had "made it." They took a weird and obscure superhero team, made a weird (but also good) movie, and it did gangbusters at the box office.
But as most of the other attempts at cinematic multiverses have learned (or not, rather), it worked (as did the first Avengers) because Marvel took the time to lay the groundwork, building both trust in their brand and the stories they were telling, over years.
Was it any good? I haven’t seen it. I haven’t seen any movies in theaters except spider man but that was a special deal.Tell the Eternals that it worked, it barely broke even.
It was also hampered by the pandemic when the rest of the industry was hampered as well. Spider-Man is the first hit in how we think of hits these days so unfair judgement.Tell the Eternals that it worked, it barely broke even.

wasn't that like 96?That's not long after shows like Farscape, Sliders, Stargate, Deep Space Nine, and Lexx were really popular in nerd culture. I can absolutely see why they might consider a ship / multiple planet / dimension show.
Shame they never went for it. We got Kindred: the Embraced at least!
Farscape was 99-03, Sliders was 95-00, Stargate SG1 was 97-07, Lexx was 97-02. DS9 was older, but ran until 99 and was really good in the later seasons. That seems close enough to 02 that it would be fresh and vibrant in the mind of science fiction fans, to me at least.wasn't that like 96?
