Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Amazing Spider-Man 2* Promoted as The Amazing Spider-Man: Rise of Electro in some markets is a live-action film based on the Marvel Comics superhero Spider-Man and the sequel to 2012's The Amazing Spider-Man, once again directed by Marc Webb and starring Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker/Spider-Man. It is the second (and last) installment in The Amazing Spider-Man Series.Following the fallout of the Lizard's attack on Manhattan, life seems to be going well for Peter Parker - he's graduated at the top of his class, he has a happy romantic relationship with Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone), and still has time to help the police deal with crime running rampant in the city. Things take an unexpected turn, however, when Oscorp technician Max Dillon (Jamie Foxx) gets into an accident that transforms him into an electricity-powered freak of nature that quickly becomes Spider-Man's most powerful opponent yet. In addition, there's the matter of the unexpected return of Peter's old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), who has an infatuation with the web-slinger and is slated to take control of Oscorp as his father Norman (Chris Cooper) becomes increasingly ill. Unfortunately, Peter learns a truth about his parents that will test his friendship with Harry and transform the world around him as he is posed to fight his greatest battle.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The film also stars Sally Field as Peter's Aunt May, Felicity Jones as Felicia Hardy and Paul Giamatti as Aleksei Sytsevich/Rhino. It was released on May 2, 2014 in the United States, but interestingly opened in several international markets weeks before that date.The movie was originally envisioned as a launchpad for a Shared Universe of Spider-Man characters that would directly compete with the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This plan was discarded when Sony made a deal with Marvel Studios to integrate the character into the MCU via another Continuity Reboot in 2016 with an appearance in Captain America: Civil War then Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2017, abandoning all other planned movies. As such, this is the last film in the Amazing Spider-Man Series.As was the case with the first movie, Beenox made the video game adaptation.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })Official trailer here.

Trailers Always Spoil
 The Amazing Spider-Man 2 / int_143939c1
comment
Trailers Always Spoil: One thing that is nigh-universally agreed upon is that the teasers and trailers gave away far too much of the movie, with nearly every major scene spoiled in advance. A rare case of this crossing over with Never Trust a Trailer as well, since despite this the trailers were also very misleading in regards to the plot, such as making Electro out to be a more important character than he was in the actual movie, and downplaying the romance between Peter and Gwen which is far more prominent, not to mention the presence of scenes that were not in the final movie. The twist of Green Goblin being in the movie, especially since he only appears in character towards the end of the movie. The poster also spoils it but it was released slightly earlier. The "Vengeance" TV spot makes what happens to Gwen obvious. Rhino's mech suit, plastered over the posters and trailers, doesn't show up until the very end. The reveal of Doctor Octopus' tentacles and Vulture's wings comes at the end of the film. The impact of the shot is clearly ruined by the trailers showing them months in advance. An internet ad for the Blu-Ray release of the movie casually reveals a major plot spoiler for the alternate ending: Peter meets his father after Gwen dies. Of course, given that this is an alternate ending, it probably isn't going to reflect anything canonical in the series.

No Biochemical Barriers: Subverted in a human-to-human basis. The DNA Richard Parker used in his human-spider trials for medical research was his own, so only his own genetic line (including Peter) can harness the real powers of the spiders' venom. Harry tries, not knowing this... and it goes very badly.

All There in the Manual: The prequel comic explains what happened to Peter's old costume and what prompted him to revamp the design. The Daily Bugle tie-in site does a lot of world building, alludes to a number of Spider-Verse characters who have yet to appear in the films, and even offers up an explanation for the Vulture's wings. See the "Mythology Gag" list on the page for the franchise to see just how many characters, locations, and plot threads they allude to.

comment
Adaptational Villainy: Harry is portrayed differently than he was in the comics, being the Big Bad, and the Green Goblin that killed Gwen, rather than his father, whereas his comics counterpart was genuinely upset by Gwen's death. Harry is put into the position of running a company he has no experience with just for the small chance of finding a cure for his genetic condition as opposed to just being a man trying to make his own life away from his family name in the comics. Dr. Kafka in the comics is a well-meaning psychologist with a number of success stories, not a ranting Mad Scientist.

I Just Want to Have Friends: Max Dillon has been an overlooked nobody for all of his life. When Spider-Man saves him, comforts him by noticing his name on his Oscorp badge and acting like friends, Max is overjoyed. He's later happy to hear Gwen remembered his name from the conversation on the elevator. Harry Osborn is able to win over Electro's assistance by saying how much he needs his help. The words "I need you" from Harry to Max seem to be the primary reason that Dillon agreed to help.

Mythology Gag
 The Amazing Spider-Man 2 / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: Gwen wears an outfit that's very similar to what she was wearing when she died in the comics. Guess what happens. Spidey and Electro's first meeting results in a fight after a misunderstanding, like in The Spectacular Spider-Man. The Green Goblin wears Powered Armor, like the versions seen in Sam Raimi's Spider-Man Trilogy and the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon, although he is most similar to the New Goblin from Spider-Man 3. Norman Osborn doesn't suit up as or call himself the Green Goblin in this film, but he has a somewhat mutated appearance with greenish skin and claws in a nod to the Body Horror-based Ultimate Green Goblin. Max Dillon's birthday cake, which has green icing with yellow lightning bolts, is a shout-out to his classic costume. Felicia Hardy (The Black Cat) is Harry's secretary. Doc Ock's tentacles look the same as they did from Spider-Man 2. The Venom symbiote debuts in a behind the scenes photo, contained in several glass containers in an Oscorp lab. At the end of the Extended Edition trailer, it's seen contained in a floating orb, but in the final version of the film it is replaced by Rhino's armor. Eddie Brock is also a reporter and wrote an article regarding the arrest of Cletus Kasady, ending by saying that Cletus will not be able to cause any more "carnage" behind bars. Peter's ringtone is the 1960's Spider-Man cartoon theme. He also whistles the song as he webs up Aleksi Systevitch at the start of the film. In another nod to the theme song, Harry paraphrases the "does whatever a spider can" lyric when discussing the Web-Head's abilities. The Man in the Shadows from The Stinger of the previous film returns, and he's revealed as Mr. Fiers - the Gentleman from the Sinister Six Trilogy of novels. Gwen plans on moving to England following her graduation. In the comics, she temporarily relocated there following her father's death. Peter has taken a job as photographer with the Daily Bugle. Jonah still pays him poorly and berates him in all-caps emails. Peter has a picture of rapper/actor Donald Glover in his bedroom. Glover famously campaigned to play Peter Parker in the previous movie, which ignited a firestorm of controversy and partially led to the creation of Miles Morales. The Green Goblin fight has a few call backs from the Sam Raimi's Spider-Man Trilogy such as: A certain fruit-based projectile that appears out of nowhere after Peter crashes into a building, ala the first movie's Goblin fight climax. Peter knocks Harry off his glider, who then proceeds to knock his head on metal on the way down, ala the New Goblin fight in Spider-Man 3. Harry letting Gwen fall is not unlike the Goblin letting Mary Jane fall in Spider-Man, nor is it unlike Doc Ock letting Aunt May fall in the original Spider-Man 2. When Gwen falls, Spider-Man's web resembles hands reaching out to her. Back in Spider-Man 3 the Venom symbiote looked like this while dripping on Eddy Brock after Peter rejected it. After Gwen dies, the clock stops at 1:21. In the comics, Gwen died in issue #121. Neogenics is mentioned. In the 90's Spider-Man: The Animated Series, Neogenics is basically the science of mutating people by LEGO Genetics; it's what mutated the spider that bit Peter and gave him powers, and goes on to become responsible for most of Spidey's Rogues Gallery. Alistair Smythe is the man in the elevator who told Max to stay behind to check an electrical problem where he would later get his powers. He becomes the Ultimate Spider-Slayer. During the final battle, Electro tosses Spider-Man around with Tesla Coils to the tune of "Itsy Bitsy Spider". This is a recurring method of how villains would taunt Spider-Man in the comics and was even featured in the first Sam Raimi Spider-Man film. The final battle with Electro shares many similarities with the final battle with Electro/Hyper-Electro in the 2001 PlayStation game Spider-Man 2 – Enter: Electro, from the battle taking place amongst a field of electrical towers right down to the A God Am I dialogue. Peter has the flu and buys medicine early in the film. In the original comics, Peter was sick with the flu during the events of Gwen Stacy's death.

Easter Egg
 The Amazing Spider-Man 2 / int_29a39f6
comment
Easter Egg: In a Freeze-Frame Bonus moment in a Missing Trailer Scene, the Oscorp computer that Harry pulls up, while extremely blurry, makes mention of Dr. Curt Connors, Dr. Morbius, Venom Storage, and Ravencroft. In the movie proper, Venom Storage instead refers to the storage of venom from the genetically altered spiders that gave Peter his power. So while not THAT Venom, the naming was likely an intentional Mythology Gag. A citizen that asks about what people think of Spider-Man appears in a shirt that looks like the one that belonged to Flint Marko, better known as the Sandman.

Kick the Dog: Max's life is just a series of these moments. His power plant designs are used without giving him an once of credit. Alistair Smythe casually orders Max to stay behind at work on his birthday and repair a problem, ignoring Max's blustering, even throwing in a knife-twisting "Happy Birthday." Finally, the technician refuses to cut the power to the circuitry before Max repairs said problem simply because he's clocking out and doesn't feel like it, completely ignoring Max's protests about the danger.

Not the Fall That Kills You: Subverted; Gwen dies when Peter fires a webline to catch her after she starts falling from the top of the clocktower, and he grabs a pole to stop their descents before Gwen hits the ground. He's able to stop her mere inches off the ground, but her built up momentum results in her neck snapping and head smashing against the floor when the taught web makes her bounce.

After being saved by Spider-Man and given some amicable words, Max Dillon has imaginary conversations with the hero and describes the hero as his best friend to anyone who will listen. When Gwen and Harry treat him without the contempt or indifference he expects of others, he reacts similarly.

Bad Liar: Peter claims his face got dirty from cleaning the chimney (which they don't have) and that he made all the clothes in the washing machine come out red and blue because he was washing the flag. Aunt May doesn't seem to believe any of it but she doesn't question further.

Adaptational Heroism: Max Dillon is a minor example, at least pre-Electro. In the original continuity, Max was a Jerkass with few morals long before even becoming a super villain. Here, he's a nicer guy (if somewhat unstable) before turning to villainy.

Soap Opera Rapid Aging Syndrome
 The Amazing Spider-Man 2 / int_3fafbfd4
comment
Soap Opera Rapid Aging Syndrome: Gwen's brothers are clearly older than they were when their father died, despite it only being a few months ago. Obviously, this is because it's been two years since they shot their scenes in the first film and the film used the same actors from the previous film, rather than recasting them with actors the same age as the first film. Likewise, this applies to Peter in flashbacks to the night his parents left him with Ben and May, but the film gets around it by only showing him in close-ups (to hide that he's clearly taller) or reusing footage from the last film.

Electro, appropriately, has an electronic theme of synthesised instruments, containing many whispering voices ("He lied to me, he shot at me, he hates on me, afraid of me, he's dead to me"), seemingly representing his own paranoia. Conversely, Max's is an understated, woodwind-based arrangement, fitting of his tendency to be overlooked. (It's worth noting that it gets a very dark, almost horrific reprise with full Ethereal Choir participation, twice later in the movie: once in his terrifying transformation sequence, and another at his defeat by Spider-Man and Gwen.

Then to make things even worse a little boy in a Spider-Man costume runs out in front of Rhino. You don't need to consider his mother's terror because you can see it. Thank god Peter watched that video.

comment
The Stinger: The ending credits are literally interrupted without warning to bring you a preview clip from X-Men: Days of Future Past, before continuing as if nothing happened. The explanation given is that director Marc Webb had been stuck in a contractual tug-of-war between Sony and Fox over work on this film and a sequel to (500) Days of Summer. Fox decided to relent in exchange for free advertising of their own superhero film. This got a lot of people thinking that Days of Future Past would be a Spider-Man crossover. It was not to be. A more unconventional stinger can be found by using the Shazam smartphone app during the credits. Doing so reveals a couple extreme close-up images hinting at the line-up for the Sinister Six. Green Goblin, Doc Ock, Rhino, Vulture, Kraven and Mysterio.

Advertised Extra: Downplayed with the character of Alexei Sytsevich (Rhino). He's the least advertised of the movie's villains, and he's also the one that gets the least amount of screentime. Technically speaking, he doesn't even become the Rhino until the last few minutes of the movie. Downplayed because again, he was the least advertised, and his appearance ends up being a clear Sequel Hook as Harry is building the Sinister Six. Alexei acts as the film's narrative bookends. Played straight with Norman Osborn, who dies early into the movie — though he does have bearing on the plot. Technically speaking, Harry as the Green Goblin is played up a little more in the ads than he is as a super-powered antagonist — like Venom in the Sam Raimi movies, he appears for about ten minutes. Also like Raimi's Venom, the Green Goblin makes those ten minutes count.

Stalking Is Love: Subverted; Peter follows Gwen around without her knowing despite the two of them breaking up; of course, Peter was making sure she was safe and Gwen didn't want to break up the relationship. Its not really treated as overly romantic, either, more a sign that Peter can't let her go despite wanting to, to demonstrate his struggle with his guilt over breaking his promise to her father conflicting with his feelings for her.

Spider-Man's initial confrontation with Electro is different from what the trailers portray. In the trailer, Max seems to be attacking people and flips out simply because Spidey doesn't remember his name on spot. In the films, he is confused but less unstable and only flips out after the police tries sniping him, just when Spidey was calming him down.

Adaptation Distillation
 The Amazing Spider-Man 2 / int_5a40d6a
comment
Adaptation Distillation/Composite Character: The movie version of the Rhino is a Russian thug like the mainstream version, but sports a suit of Powered Armor like the Ultimate Rhino. Electro seems to be taking cues from his Ultimate universe's design (specifically his later design where he looks like a solid-blue energy being) and origin from his The Spectacular Spider-Man take. There is also a precedent to him being a vengeful social outcast in Spider-Man: The New Animated Series. Harry Osborn maintains his relationships with Norman Osborn and Peter, and adds Ultimate Eddie Brock's history with Peter, namely that they were childhood friends who drifted apart and reconnected after Peter became Spider-Man. As the Green Goblin, he gains his powers from the same source as Peter and physically transforms into a Goblin-like creature as in the Ultimate Universe, however the transformation isn't as extreme as in the Ultimate Universe and he still uses the glider and pumpkin bombs from the traditional comics. Much like Ultimate Eddie Brock, Harry is spurred into villainy by a perceived betrayal by Peter. Richard Parker combines elements of the Ultimate Comics version (brilliant scientist whose experiments tie into Spidey's rogues gallery) and the regular comics (killed by villains via a plane crash and falsely branded a traitor, which is why Aunt May avoids talking about him). The spider that bit Peter in the last film is part of an Oscorp genetic modification experiment as in the Ultimate universe, with Richard Parker's notes revealing in this film that part of the experiment included a radioactive isotope being injected into the spider, essentially making it into a radioactive spider as in the original story. It also combines elements of Ultimate Venom, as the spider is part of Richard Parker's research in an attempt to cure terminal illness and is ultimately what leads to the plane crash that leaves Peter an orphan — albeit with the plane crash occurring under different circumstances in the two instances.

Guilt Complex: Peter really goes hardcore with this. He's feeling guilt towards himself throughout the whole movie for continuing to date Gwen despite her father telling him to stay away from her out of concern for her safety. He also feels guilty about both Max and Harry, who both blame him for failing to help them. Then when Gwen actually dies because he came back to her anyway after she was moving to England (although granted, she should have listened to his warnings to stay away from the battle), it hits him so hard that he spends five whole months mourning her death and blaming himself over it. He finally snaps out of it when he listens to Gwen's speech again and realizes the city still needs him.

But for Me, It Was Tuesday: A rare inverted/heroic version with Max Dillion. Spider-Man saves so many people on a daily basis that he doesn't remember who Max is until Max reminds him of that day. Technically speaking, Spider-Man does in fact remember Max, just not his name, and Max's electric makeover hasn't exactly made him easier to recognize.

Room Full of Crazy
 The Amazing Spider-Man 2 / int_6941e30b
comment
Room Full of Crazy: Max Dillon has his own stalker room of Spider-Man, again complete with photos and newspaper clippings, as well as a mirror next to one photo so he can pretend that he is Spidey's secret identity, because of a crippling inferiority complex and nobody noticing him (his own mother forgets when its his birthday). Peter Parker's own room takes on some attributes of this trope as he fills a wall with clippings, notes, annotated maps, and the like in his effort to figure out what really happened to his father; Aunt May is concerned when she notices it.

The Reveal: The reason Richard and Mary Parker left Peter with Ben and May was Norman Osborn making a deal to weaponize the genetic research Richard was conducting to try and cure Norman's disease. When Richard found out, he tried to destroy all of the data and went on the run because the spiders used in the research were coded specifically to his blood, so Norman needed Richard or his bloodline to complete the research.

Arc Words: "Hope" is frequently mentioned, not only to allude to Spider-Man's status as a Hope Bringer but also as a reminder (especially to Peter) to pick yourself up from a Despair Event Horizon. "Roosevelt", the name of the file that Richard Parker uploaded seconds before his death. Peter naturally associates it with President Roosevelt, but lacks a proper context and gets distracted by other issues until he uncovers a clue which allows him to realize its significance. The file ends up being located at an abandoned section of Roosevelt Avenue.

Remember the New Guy?: Harry wasn't mentioned at all in the previous film, but he and Peter were friends when they younger — the explanation given is that Norman shipped Harry off to boarding school at 11. The Daily Bugle and its staff. Despite not being mentioned at all in the first film (beyond the advertisement asking for pictures of the Lizard), Peter is already working for the paper as a freelance photographer at the start of this film.

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero!: Electro and Spidey meet in Times Square. Spidey has managed to talk Max down and while Max is grumpy, he's still in a reasonable state of mind... until the police sniper misinterprets Max stumbling and flaring electricity as a threat and fires. In the battle with the Green Goblin, Peter starts the gears of the clock tower moving in order to strangle Harry, which quickly leads to his downfall as the gears begin to whirl round to snap the web that is stopping Gwen from falling. Peter jams his foot in the gears which causes them to explode, both cutting the web that is strangling Harry, and the web holding Gwen. As if that wasn't enough, Peter's attempt to save Gwen is inevitably doomed to failure. He fires a web which grabs her, before grabbing a metal pole while falling at full velocity. The web going taut causes Gwen to suffer an extreme whiplash which breaks her neck as well as smashing her head on the ground floor of the clock tower.

 The Amazing Spider-Man 2 / int_85f0963f
comment
Psycho Serum: Used in an interesting way. Because of the way Richard Parker made it — using his blood — the venom of the genetically enhanced spiders only has perfect regenerative and enhancing qualities when used on people of his bloodline, hence why Peter became Spider-Man. Their venom is dangerous when used by anyone else, and when Harry takes it to cure himself it ends up turning him into a giggling, violent psychopath.

comment
What Happened to the Mouse?: Menken gets the hell out of dodge at the end of the second act and doesn't show up again. He was originally supposed to be killed by Harry, but his death scene was cut from the film. It's unclear what happens to Felicia after Menken pins Oscorp's crimes on Harry and uses it as excuse to fire him. From the first Amazing movie: the subplot of Uncle Ben's killer still being on the loose is never brought up or acknowledged in any way. To draw further attention to this, it is part of the plot of the video game. That could just be Character Development, Peter stopped looking in the first film, because Spider-Man was supposed to be helping people, not be him out for vengeance. Dr. Connors is also AWOL, along with Flash Thompson.

Harmless Electrocution: Zig-zagged. Spidey gets zapped so much it borders on ridiculous, but just walks it off. At one point he's literally connected to the city's primary hydroelectric power planet and is only sent flying and stunned for a minute. It's possible his rubberized suit shielded him, as a couple of eywitnesses to his first battle speculate, and he has Super Toughness and Healing Factor for an additional handwave. Averted with all the other humans Electro zaps, who tend to die immediately.

Harry is portrayed differently than he was in the comics, being the Big Bad, and the Green Goblin that killed Gwen, rather than his father, whereas his comics counterpart was genuinely upset by Gwen's death. Harry is put into the position of running a company he has no experience with just for the small chance of finding a cure for his genetic condition as opposed to just being a man trying to make his own life away from his family name in the comics.

Meta Origin: Introduced in the previous film, though taken several steps further in this movie. Specifically, Max Dillon is an Oscorp scientist who gets his electricity-based powers from an Oscorp project gone awry, Harry Osborn gets his powers from a self-inflicted dose of the spider venom that gave Peter his abilities, Alexei Syetsevich gets his robotic exoskeleton from Oscorp's mysterious "Special Projects" division, and the first scene reveals that an Oscorp assassin murdered Peter's parents. The final scenes also show the Vulture's wings and Doctor Octopus' tentacles in the Special Projects vault, possibly foreshadowing both villains being backed by Oscorp. Not to mention that Felicia Hardy is introduced as an Oscorp secretary, possibly setting up Black Cat to be connected to Oscorp in some way.

Foreshadowing: The movie blatantly displays Dr. Octopus' robotic arms and the Vulture's wings among the weapons technology at Oscorp. This would be a spoiler if they didn't slowly pan the camera to give both of them a good showing before zooming in on the Rhino's suit. Gwen Stacy's entire graduation speech is about how teenagers like to think that they are immortal, but that death is inevitable. One of the pictures Peter tapes to the wall when he tries to solve the Roosevelt mystery is Gwen's, with a note saying "Do I have to lose you too??" pinned below that. The lyrics of the song that plays during this scene that follow the shot of the picture are "Baby, I'm not moving on/I'll love you long after you're gone". Also, Captain Stacy's appearance when Gwen shows up during the Electro fight pretty heavily implies the outcome. When Gwen meets up with Peter, there is a store called Forever 21 behind her. This is both foreshadowing she's not getting any older, and a reference to The Amazing Spider-Man #121, the issue of comic Gwen's death. Of course, it's also just a major fashion retail chain, so it may be a coincidence.

Leitmotif
 The Amazing Spider-Man 2 / int_9f6fb586
comment
Leitmotif: All the major characters have one. Spider-Man has a very triumphant, heroic trumpet. Gwen has a simple piano melody, which receives a stunning reprise in "We're Best Friends". Electro, appropriately, has an electronic theme of synthesised instruments, containing many whispering voices ("He lied to me, he shot at me, he hates on me, afraid of me, he's dead to me"), seemingly representing his own paranoia. Conversely, Max's is an understated, woodwind-based arrangement, fitting of his tendency to be overlooked. (It's worth noting that it gets a very dark, almost horrific reprise with full Ethereal Choir participation, twice later in the movie: once in his terrifying transformation sequence, and another at his defeat by Spider-Man and Gwen. The Green Goblin is unnervingly heralded by a shrill electronic howl. While not used in a majority of the movie, The Rhino has a Leitmotif that sounds like a pounding rock beat.

Rogues Gallery: A lot of them turn up in one form or another this time around. Alongside Electro, Goblin and Rhino, Felicia Hardy (Black Cat) shows up as Harry's secretary, while Alistair Smythe (the Spider-Slayer) is Max's boss, and the Gentleman shows up at the end. Worth mentioning, since it seems to be an Invoked Trope in-universe: Oscorp are linked to all of the supervillains, and seem to want to make some more.

Forgotten First Meeting: Double Subverted. After Max Dillon becomes Electro, he causes a scene in Times Square, prompting Spider-Man to arrive. While Spidey does remember Max once reminded of the incident, he has trouble recalling his name (in the Web-Head's defense, he remembers the conversation, and that he told Max that he's Spidey's "eyes and ears").

 The Amazing Spider-Man 2 / int_a2b998a0

Wouldn't Hurt a Child: When the little boy stands up to the Rhino, he stops shooting just as the cops do, and waits for the kid to get back to his mother before properly engaging in a fight with Spider-Man, even allowing Spidey to have a conversation with the boy in plain sight, when he could have taken both out (or tried) with some of his long-range weaponry. This is Truth in Television, as most criminals consider harming a child as the lowest thing anyone can do.

I Warned You: A heart-wrenching subversion — Peter warns Gwen Stacy not to follow him to his battle with Electro, but she's so adamant that he has to trap her against a car hood with his webbing to keep her away. She eventually cuts herself free, and a series of events takes place leading to her death, which Peter obviously mourns over too much to say "I told you so." However, without her, it's possible that defeating Electro would not have even been possible.

Mickey Mousing: Electro's Theme contains a lot of Dubstep, which usually cannot be heard by the characters in the movie themselves; however, during the final standoff between Spidey and Electro, the latter converts himself into his energy form and starts jumping between the coils of the power plant and punching Spidey in between. Everytime he switches from one coil to another, he makes them emit one tone at a time, creating a Tesla-coil rendition of "Itsy-Bitsy Spider". Spidey himself isn't particularly thrilled.

Spidey refuses to give it to him, fearing that his blood may harm or kill Harry, or even turn him into a monster like what happened with the Lizard in the previous film. Harry responds that he's already dying, so he's got nothing to lose.

As the result he very nearly does die from Electro's spark and only survives because Electro resuscitates him Magical Defibrillator style. There's also that kid during the fight scene with the Rhino, who runs past the police into a gunfight to try and "help". If the Rhino Would Hurt a Child, it might have ended very badly for him.

Character Death: Norman Osborn dies early on in the film due to the genetic disorder that had left him clinging to life in the last film. Though he is only stated to have died offscreen, and the film never actually shows his dead body. Gwen Stacy, in a similar manner as the comics. Except, instead of catching her wrong and snapping her neck, he catches her too late and her head hits the ground.

Harry, on the other hand, looks like he's at death's door only a few days after being told that it's hereditary.

Unspoken Plan Guarantee: Actually averted; during the final tussle with Electro, Peter and Gwen work out a plan to stop him out loud: Peter will reconnect the cables while Gwen flips the back-up switch, thus overcharging Electro and taking him out of the fight. The plan works perfectly, with the only hitches being Gwen having to prise a padlock key out of a corpse's hand and Peter getting thrown back by another electric blast.

Environmental Symbolism: Gwen's death is moved to a clock tower, because she had previously given a speech about how fleeting life and time are. The location shift makes her death more tragic and ironic, given her emphasis on time in her graduation speech.

Just Plane Wrong
 The Amazing Spider-Man 2 / int_ce1c73e2
comment
Just Plane Wrong Boeing 747s cannot bank that far, that fast. For that matter, at that distance, the wake from the two aircraft would take them down anyway, given how close they were. The movie does a good show of having ATC's immediately begin writing down the location and positioning of aircraft when the power goes out, per actual ATC protocols. However, the loss of communication with the tower would not completely black out communications as it did. Aircraft will still be able to communicate with each other, and oftentimes will co-opt to confirm their locations and positions relative to one another to avoid collisions in lieu of the tower, something that has actually happened before (though in that case, the failure of communications was due to the controller becoming incapacitated rather than a blackout).

Eureka Moment: Harry realizes Peter is Spider-Man after he sees Spidey and Gwen together after previously learning about her relationship with Peter, and Spider-Man gives the exact same arguments to why Harry can't have a sample of his blood that Peter had earlier suggested he would. Gwen and Peter have one when trying to figure out how to keep Electro from shorting out Spider-Man's web-shooters (as some people might not realize, the web-shooters are man-made, not a biological power of Peter's):

Chekhov's Gunman: Aleksei Sytsevich is a nameless, seemingly generic villain who appears to be present at the beginning of the film (with the rest of his thugs) just so Spidey can kick his ass in a nice opening action scene. After the fight ends and he's restrained by Spider-Man's webbing, he shouts "IT'S NOT OVER, SPIDER!", as Peter walks away, ignoring the threat. Guess who breaks out of prison and is given control of the Rhino mecha-suit after the climax?

Early-Bird Cameo: According to Chris Cooper, this film is an introduction to Norman Osborn as a character, but not as a major force against Spider-Man. Given that he dies offscreen, and that Cooper was worried about spoiling something, it's possible that Norman comes Back from the Dead somehow - or that he was a Lying Creator. Felicia Hardy and Alistair Smythe make brief appearances, though whether or not they have more significance to the plot will now likely never be seen.

Spider-Sense: The indicating sound effect established by the first film continues, but with the addition of slowed-down sequences that show how Spider-Man sees things. This primarily happens during the first Electro fight and as Gwen is falling to her death. This makes one consider whether her fall feels much longer to Peter than its real-time of 15-20 seconds.

Movie Superheroes Wear Black: Electro wears a dark leather outfit with no mask, as opposed to his traditional comic costume, which consists of green tights and a big yellow mask. On his Tumblr blog, Brian Bendis was quick to point out they basically adapted Electro's design from Ultimate Spider-Man. The Green Goblin wears half-finished Powered Armor that has green plating overlaying black. Averted with Spidey himself, however; the suit's colors have brightened and the eyepieces have grown larger, moving it closer to both the comics and the Tobey Maguire/Sam Raimi suit.
