The Amazing Spider-Man 2 The Electro and Ravencroft Connection

[Super Jim]

Commented on a different thread about the Ravencroft Institute sign and somethings I noticed. Here it is below:

So take a look at Room S310D...

That's right, Voltage Cells. There is no way that this is a coincidence. We have a movie where the main villain is a guy that controls electricity, and then we have a section of the prison for the criminally insane that has voltage cells...

This just has to be part of the story.

So I am surmising that Electro will be going to Ravencroft...

It is possible that Max Dillon will have his accident at Ravencroft, or he'll be going here after being turned into Electro in order to take advantage of the voltage cells. Maybe he'll deplete them (suck the power out of the cells into himself) which will cause some inmates (maybe Aleskei) to escape?

Now, the fact that there is a section at Ravencroft titled "Voltage Cells" is part one of this. Part two is how I noticed that medical inspection lock-up is in the same area as the voltage cells.

So if Electro/Max will be going there then he'll also have access to whatever is in this medical inspection lock-up.

Here are the questions:

1. What do you think about this? Will Max or Electro be going to Ravencroft (not as a prisoner) and will these Voltage Cells be part of the story (and if so, how/why?)?

2. Is it a coincidence that medical storage lock-up is in the same area as the voltage cells?

3. What kinds of things could be locked up in medical storage lock-up and how could/would that play into this? For example, was Connor's serum locked up here?

Electro ends up there at the end of the movie.

 

[nbanflguy]

Electro ends up there at the end of the movie.

Is this confirmed? Or just your guess? I know we kind of need Electro for a Sinister 6, so I am totally fine with him ending up in Ravencroft until he is needed later. That being said, I also think it would be awesome for Goblin to show up at the end of the movie and kill Electro rather easily. Thus showing how powerful and sick Gobby really is.

 

[Picard Sisko]

We know Electro is going to be powerful, but Green Goblin is going to have to be far superior, and BIGGER... being Spidey's arch nemesis and all.

 

[GuestStar2004]

It's just a guess, he might be in ravencroft in that teaser being experimented on, but I'd be surprised if he was killed off at the end

 

[Super Jim]

You're talking about him being put in prison at the end of the movie. I can't see how him being put in prison after being defeated has anything to do with these voltage cells or this Medical Storage Lock-Up. But on that point, if so, will Rhino also end up there at the end of TASM2?

But beyond that, what I'm asking about is whether there will be something happening in this Voltage Cell room/Medical Storage Lock-Up room that will involve Electro or Max?

To me, having rooms with these purposes, in the same place, can't be coincidence in a movie that includes Electro.

My best guess is that Electro will try to get something from the Medical Storage Lock-Up, either for himself or at the urging of Goblin, will be attacked (possibly by Spiderman), will suck down the Voltage from the cells (because he will be depleted), which will cause a power outage at the prison, which will allow Aleskei to escape (he'll go to Oscorp or Goblin to be transformed).

What about that idea? I am expecting Aleskei to be captured in the beginning of the movie in that truck scene and put in Ravencroft.

 

[Picard Sisko]

Rhino could be a recurring villain in the series.

Guess.

Also, voltage cells are used for medical purpouses, so maybe it's just part of the medical wing.

I work in the medical field and a voltage cell is not part of medical equipment. Sure, there are types of medical equipment that uses current (voltage), such as a cardiopulminary resuscitator but that is very different than a voltage cell.

A voltage cell is really a power storage device that often uses electrolytic fluid for excitation. So likely, these voltage cells power the facility and not equipment directly.

Also, the Medical Inspection Lock-Up seems more like a security type room, not equipment storage. This makes me think that something medically unknown would be stored in this room for safety.

So for example, if a Russian thug stole some bio chemical or some tube with some sort of unknown liquid in it, and he was captured by some spandex wearing hero and brought to this prison, this spandex wearing dude would likely hand over said chemical or tube. And where would the director of the facility put it? Likely in the Medical Inspection Lock-Up, which for some odd reason (quite possibly story related) is located in the same area as where the facilities' power cells are...

 

[Super Jim]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm......................................

 

[Picard Sisko]

That is going to be one epic chase scene.

 

[UltimateWebhead]

That suit is beautiful. It should be a crime for something to look that good in a set pic.

 

[Super Jim]

Any speculation on that tube that Spiderman is holding? My guess is that it is what Aleskei was trying to steal and will end up being turned in to Ravencroft when Spiderman drops Aleskei off.

What do you guys think?

 

[amazingly atiba]

somone said it was a radioactive weapon

 

[Super Jim]

If it is a radioactive weapon, I wonder how it can play into things...

 

[JOE]

It's a shake weight.

 

[Super Jim]

lol

So hey, that Voltage Cells room I speculated about so many months ago...

Room S310D as shown above...

Well, I think this is it:

So the only question is who is this guy? Also, is that Max's shoulder seen over the unknown guy's right should?

 

[Picard Sisko]

I think he works for Aleksei.

 

[Nicko-Ray]

Noticed that too lol.

 

[Super Jim]

Well, investigating things a bit more the pic below (what I still feel may be the Voltage Room at Ravencroft) is a prelude scene to the Truck/Armored Car chase scene with Aleski and Spidey. I was trying to figure out who was stealing the voltage cell by figuring out who was the guy behind the guy shown in the pic shown here:

You can see the material that the person is wearing has a specific striped design, right?

Well, the guy wearing the hat in the pic below is wearing that outfit:

So these guys are just mercs working for Aleski, which leads to this scene:

Now, is the canister from the voltage room at Ravencroft? Are these Voltage Cells like I first surmised? Seems to make sense. As I've said before, why have a room titled "Voltage Cells" in a film with Electro, unless it means something. But if it is Ravencroft, what is the connection to an Oscorp armored car?

So we have these thugs, led by Aleski, steal these (let's call them) Voltage Cell(s). Are they stealing from Ravencroft or Oscorp is the question. They make their escape in the Oscorp armored truck. Is it just happenstance that there is an Oscorp armored truck, or is it part of the plan? Is that how they get in to Ravencroft, by pretending to be security guards or something? They get stopped by Spidey and somehow Aleski uses a tow truck while towing the Oscorp armored car.

So, why is he towing the armored truck if (obviously from the pics above) they stole the voltage cell(s)? What is the involvement of Oscorp and the armored truck? Why tow the armored truck?

Any guesses would be appreciated...

 

[Picard Sisko]

Yeah I think that makes sense.

 

[JOE]

Star knee cap tattoos lol. Bravo.

 

[Super Jim]

Hmmm...

Look at the ground. You'll see that it looks like it got some sort of fluid on it. Is it a flammable liquid?

Next, look at the fire extinguisher behind Giamatti. Is that there just for safety, or is it used to put out flames during the scene.

Lastly, look at the way that Spidey is grabbing the cell. Seems like he's going out of his way to grab it carefully using his thunb and middle finger. Is that because of the later added CG, or is it something about the cell/canister?

Also, is this scene before or after the tow truck? Remember, we see Spidey with the cell/canister during that truck scene, so it seems like he's already got it.

Hmmm?????

 

[Picard Sisko]

It looks like the scene is after the tow truck/chase sequence.
