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

[Andrew Lucas]

When she closed her eyes...my god

The thread title is horrible. I'm glad I avoided the ASM2 forum for 2 full years otherwise that thread title would have ruined it for me.

Well the thread got the name from the comics, it was more of a debate as to whether they'y actually do it. Although now it is a spoiler.

I don't know if anybody agrees with me but this scene(wish I didn't see but trying to forget it to stay fresh again) is the most iconic breathtaking scene in all of cbm history

 

[GoodYoung]

I would have liked if they kept Captain Stacy alive and built his character up in this movie so I actually gave a damn about him, then kill him at the end of this and NORMAN can kill Gwen in 3. They could have introduced Harry this time but none of that Goblin crap for him yet.

As much as I love that scene, I agree with that post.

If the filmmakers didn't make any effort whatsoever to keep Gwen's eventual death a secret (which they didn't), it's not a spoiler.

I agree, may not be the literal comic translation but the impact it has in the movie is incredible.

It's most definitely up there if not number 1. If there's anything this franchise has nailed it's the romance, and they've done it better than not just all cbms, but most films full stop. I sincerely mean that. There's an honesty and naturalness between Garfield and Stone that is extremely hard to find, I'm not surprised they ended up dating IRL.

Nice I can't wait to get my chance to view this film with my own eyes and see this scene

Nicely said, brother. I feel sorry for MJ

Gwen's death was brutal, her head smashing onto the concrete was surprising. I think what made it even sadder was she had a top personality and had ambitions. Not only that but she calls out his name just as the web snaps, tragic. The best scene in the movie by far

 

[DigificWriter]

I can't resist good-naturedly pointing out that the people who thought Gwen's death was going to happen in a certain fashion - based on what we knew - have apparently been proven right.

 

[LizardMan07]

Yeah, the romance in these films was of the top calibre, completely outdid any CBM, and yeah, her death is the only scene in a CBM that's made me genuinely emotional.

[BLACKOUT]I've watched that clip a few times now, and I think I'd say it's my worst (worst in a good way) death I've seen in a film. It's brutal in a way gory films don't really have. [/BLACKOUT]

I was surprised at the brutality of the image too. Her body is fully arched back. She's a broken woman. When the blood runs from her nose, that really sealed the mood. I didn't cry but I was emotional and it affected me well after the screening. It makes you think and feel. The conversation with May about her putting Ben's things away was touching. I took it as her saying you don't throw that person away, they're always inside you, but you have to compartmentalise them and move on. They did really well with it.

Yeah I feel from the moment she said "I chose this for myself, nobody makes my decisions for me" to the moment he went up to the little kid dressed up as spiderman, that they got it completely right. Very powerful moments. The actual death, funeral, speech, Aunt may's talk, even his look changed, his hair was much shorter, he felt like a different spidey too. You can clearly see it changed him.

I saw it for the first time two days ago and I still haven't shaken that shocked/depressed feeling, very powerful film.

I'm glad I didn't watch the. Clip but hearing. It makes me kinda want to cry, but I'm refuse to watch the scene until IMAX 3D. And I guarantee I will cry

 

[OriginalMiles]

I loved the scene! (Hope that doesn't sound sadistic XD)

Spoiler

I don't think her head hits the ground... I'm pretty sure it's just whiplash.

Either way, I thought it was brutal. I was really shocked at how brutal it looked, it starts of in slow motion then just speeds up to normal speed and SNAP!

i was so shocked by that scene that i felt pretty unconfortable and truly sad after that, i couldn´t sleep until after 4 a.m. (the movie ended 2:30), it was just so fast but impactfull, i didn´t like the little foreshadowing when Gwen is in the elevator with Harry

Spoiler

Foreshadowing in the elevator? What foreshadowing?
I only recall foreshadowing in the Graduation speech and TASM 1. (seriously, the web was on her stomach in both! Coincidence? Probably. )

Do we really need spoiler tags in this thread? I mean come on, the name of it is a massive spoiler.
