The Amazing Spider-Man 2 The Scene Gwen Stacey Died - Part 2

[Spideyfan117]

I've already gotten into debates about this too many times. Lol. Agreed to disagree.

No hard feelings, man? I get that you really like [616] MJ.

 

[sl500jazz]

^ None at all.

I'm a big fan of the character, and although I have my own preferences in terms of her portrayal, I don't want to be closed-minded about the situation. I'm sure that their decision to cut MJ from TASM2 was ultimately for the best and I can't wait to see what they'll do in TASM3.

Based on the casting of Shailene, I think we'll be getting a USM Mary Jane.

Safe to assume, unless they changed their mind on the direction they wanna go with the character.

I wonder, though. Shailene strikes me as a partier. lol Maybe they can do a fusion like they did with Gwen and blend some of her incarnations.

True, which is definitely a possibility.

Haha I pictured her as more quiet/calm, but looks can be deceiving.

Hmmm...we'll see. Based on Webb's Gwen Stacy (who seems influenced by 616 Gwen, Ultimate MJ, and TSSM Gwen) I think we'll be getting something closer to 616, or at the very least, a 616 MJ/ Ultimate Gwen/ TSSM MJ hybrid.

Some of her interviews and tweets just made me go, "Damn, I'd LOVE to party with that girl." lol She's got spunk.

I ****ing love this forum.

Ok so...I came across a theory today regarding a certain scene in the sizzle reel, and I thought I'd share it. I know that it probably sounds a little crazy, but we hadn't really discussed this as a possibility. I know some people might seriously dislike this if it were actually true, but just try to be a little open-minded.

Anyway...

Spoiler

Many people think that that white-ish thing at the bottom of that pic of Peter screaming is Gwen Stacy's hair. To be honest, I can't really see it. Gwen Stacy's hair varies in shade and texture, and even in the high definition shots, it just looked like a solid white mass. Seven speculated that it was an optical illusion created by Peter's knee, and I really couldn't see that being the case either. It's just too light to be human skin. It also definitely doesn't look like any of the Goblin's gear.

but... take a look again...what if that is actually the top of Electro's dying head?

Interesting. I do agree that it doesn't look like Gwen's hair, and it does kinda look like it could be electros head. But I still don't think Peter would have that reaction for any one other than Gwen.

 

[Nicko-Ray]

I always thought we'd definitely get a more party-type MJ this time around. They're doing their best to differentiate from the Raimi series so it only makes sense to go down that road.

 

[SpeterMan3]

Interesting theory there.

Well, if that's really him in Spidey's arms, then this is how I see the whole story unfolding:

Spoiler

Electro's whole motivation for becoming 'evil' seems to be him feeling betrayed by Spider-Man. Deep down he's always wanted to be the hero, not the villain. And I'm sure Spidey just wants to help him more than anything else.

Maybe we are led to believe that Electro had been successfully 'contained' during the Power Plant battle. The Goblin arrives, grabs Gwen, they fight at the clock tower, so on and so forth...

Electro escapes and goes to the clock tower to help Harry Goblin defeat Spider-Man, but somehow comes to the realization that was being manipulated by Harry all along.

He sees Gwen in peril

and remembers that she was probably the only person to wish him a happy birthday. The only person to actually take notice and be kind to him, when the rest of the world was cold and cruel.

Now is his chance to be the hero! He attempts to save Gwen (maybe he is successful) and in the process is tragically killed by the Goblin. Peter couldn't save him. Maybe Max gives a speech as he is dying about how he was always Spidey's biggest fan, how he had always dreamed of helping him fight crime, and how he finally got the chance to realize those dreams. He 'dies' a hero, but ultimately Spidey failed him and is left feeling... well...

Hmm, well if electro did die that way that would definitely be sad. I don't necessarily think it will go down like that, but it's an Interesting theory I will give you that.

Lol. I can't take complete credit. It was inspired by one of the comments under Seven's video. Just something to think about. Anyway, only a few more months until we get to see for ourselves how things will really go down. So excited!

 

[Alt-Josh]

Electro is not going to side with Spider-Man, and he's not going to die, so...

 

[KillerMcQueen]

Yeah, I really doubt Electro's gonna bite it.

Didn't Jamie Foxx already confirm it when he said something to the effect of 'electricity never dies, it just goes somewhere else'? This has me thinking that he will 'die', but may return later.

Anyway, just take it with a grain of salt then. Thought I'd at least put it out there.

Indeed, I think he'll shoot off into a power socket or something similar. Like how black suit Spider-Man 'killed' Sandman in SM3 with the water, but he turned up later.

While I'd still put my money on Gwen, I actually brought that possibility up a couple days ago (I wana say in the main general thread?). And I gave some reasons/explanations why Electro/Max 'dying' (we know he survives, but the other characters might not) could elicit that strong of a response from Peter (his intense screaming).

So while my money's still on Gwen/something else, I think the theory of it being Electro is certainly compelling and interesting

 

[Picard Sisko]

I think there is a VERY small chance that Peter is screaming over Electro. Maybe a .1% chance IMO.

Agreed, that scream is for Gwen no doubt in my mind.
