The Amazing Spider-Man Things You Want To See In The Amazing Spider-Man 2

[AF3619]

I'd be disappointed if the story for the sequel isn't better than what we have with ASM. They have so many liberties now that they have their version of the origin done.

i hope Alex Kurtzman & Roberto Orci do a good job "rewriting" TASM 2 script

 

[Jick]

I hope they do a good job writing something completely different from the other 4 movies, because TASM wasn't.

 

[Jexx]

I'm hoping that they show more of Peter's internship at Oscorp, since I assume that he gained one because of the fact that he was working with Connors after he gave him the decay rate algorithm.

 

[AF3619]

I hope they do a good job writing something completely different from the other 4 movies, because TASM wasn't.

i think, now that i see it , yeah is a similar estructure as Sam Raimi´s i like TASM a little better but is a similar story estructure as SM1 (not the same just a little similar) but is because is an origin
but yeah if they top their game we could get another really good spiderman movie or even the best

 

[Jexx]

Uh.. we already got a really good spider-man movie..

three times in fact..

 

[Spideyfan93]

Good thing this won't be a trilogy.

Uh, yes...it is a trilogy. Sony is calling it the first in a trilogy.

Gwen logically, is a goner in the second film. BUT, they could alternate how she is murdered to maintain a level of surprise in order to keep comic book fans guessing along with regular audiences.

This is where good screenwriting and directing come into play.

 

[Jexx]

Gwen's probably gonna die in the 2nd film.. regardless of whether or not they're going to make more films after the first trilogy.

I still want them to introduce the Black Cat as a love interest for Spidey.

 

[AF3619]

I'm hoping that they show more of Peter's internship at Oscorp, since I assume that he gained one because of the fact that he was working with Connors after he gave him the decay rate algorithm.

haha, if the man in the shadows in fact is Norman that would be really cool like a keep your friends close but your enemies closer

 

[AF3619]

Uh.. we already got a really good spider-man movie..

three times in fact..

true, let me correct another really good...

 

[Jick]

Now that Capt. Stacy is gone, I'd like to see the consequence of that resulting in a Gang War plot for the second movie, with Shocker and Hammerhead as the main villains and the Big Man (Tombstone) pulling the strings.

Completely different plot and villains from all the other movies and an interesting direction to take the franchise.

 

[Cletus_Kasady]

A good story written by someone that has actually read a Spider-Man comic would be nice.
Whoever the villian(s) is(are) it would be nice if their story was done better than the Lizard let-down in part1.
They could introduce Black Cat, kill Gwen near the end and start off part 3 with the tentative romance Spidey and Cat shared in the comics. Then introduce MJ and let Peter try to juggle the 2 women like in the comics.
Basically, do something storywise to make up for this slap in the face to Spidey purists.

Okay, for what I would want in the sequel (besides a better constructed script) or rather what I’m imagining could happen in the sequel could be the following:

First, since this trilogy is supposed to have the disappearance of Peter’s parents be the driving mystery, the film can open with another flashback to them that sheds further light on why they had to leave Peter behind. Then the film can open with an action set piece showing Spidey fighting The Shocker and his gang committing an armed robbery. And of course, the question would arise as to where the Shocker got such technology (it’s from Oscorp obviously).

If the Amazing Spider-Man video game is canonical, then this film will take place during the fall in which Peter starts his Freshman year at Empire State University, along with Gwen. It’s there he meets Harry Osborn, who is Gwen’s long-time childhood friend, which makes Peter a bit jealous. Which also means that Norman Osborn gets be introduced as well, as Harry is at his beck and call, feeling as though he‘s treated more like a servant than his son. However, but he should still be kept hidden for the most part until towards the end of the first act; we just hear his voice and see his hands, but can tell he’s gravely ill under the care of Dr. Otto Octavious. And yet, when he decides to make a public appearance at an Oscorp benefit after years of seclusion, he appears perfectly fine and healthy. This will be an ongoing mystery in the film until a pivotal moment where pivotal Spidey decides to confront Osborn at his home. Oh, and it also gets established that Osborn is rather unhealthy obsession for Gwen, which is part of his desire to become young, strong, and healthy once more and, of course, be key later on.

However, Osborn isn’t the main villain, at least not directly. That would be Mysterio, who gets revealed as “The Man in Shadows” from the end credits. His debut can take place during the same Oscorp benefit, allowing for Spidey first fight him and his "Enforcers" in which, of course, he loses as Mysterio is able to get away. Then, afterwards, Mysterio’s gimmick will be to announce his crimes beforehand on television and internet broadcasts challenging Spider-Man to stop him. And his tech is so advanced it seems like real magic. This can allow for some action set-pieces such as Coney Island in homage to Amazing Spider-Man #67-68, a rotating room a la Amazing Spider-Man #24, hallucinations of Uncle Ben, his parents, and Captain Stacy, etc.

In terms of subplots, Peter can learn that, because of Uncle Ben’s death, Aunt May doesn’t have enough to finish paying the mortgage on the house, which forces Peter to look for a job. Thus leading into the Daily Bugle and J. Jonah Jameson. In this version, he and Captain Stacy were good friends, and, ironically, he initially saw Spidey as a hero until Stacy’s death. Now he blames Spidey for failing to save Stacy and is taking up his friend’s crusade by attempting to turn public opinion against him.

Another is the introduction of Mary Jane Watson (including her classic entrance) in which she’s just moved in next door to live with May’s friend, Anna. MJ appears to be a happy-go-lucky girl, but deep down she’s angry because of her parent’s divorce and has a rebellious, undisciplined streak, pretty much how Gwen Stacy was depicted in the Ultimate Spider-Man comics. If Gwen reflects Peter’s intellectual, scientific side of his personality, MJ reflects anger at feeling abandoned and non-conformity. Basically, Peter helps to prevent her from going down the wrong path like he almost did in the first film. Which is key for the end of the film in that she returns the favor in a way that should be apparent.

Anyway, when Spidey next time faces Mysterio, the villain states he has a hostage who will die that Spidey must save. And it turns out the hostage is Uncle Ben’s killer, thus giving Peter a choice as to whether or not to take his revenge. Spidey, however, saves him, but Mysterio kills Uncle Ben’s killer and Spidey is captured and taken to Osborn.

Because of this, several things get revealed: Mysterio is not only Osborn’s right-hand man, but was part been an elaborate test of Spider-Man’s abilities for the purposes of determining whether or not his DNA will be a viable cure for Osborn’s illness; the same goes for the Shocker at the beginning of the film and, perhaps, other Spidey villains that are referenced. Second, that the “healthy” Osborn is revealed to be a Life-Model Decoy provided by Mysterio, and the real Osborn we see looks like someone undergoing chemo-therapy and forced to walk on canes. Third, that Osborn has been known Peter was Spidey since day one, as he has tapped into every security camera and cellphone in the city--including the “biocable” lab at Oscorp and the convenience store where Peter allowed to let the robber go. And finally, Osborn reveals the truth about Peter’s parents and why Peter is the only successful “cross-species.”

Spidey is then forced to “donate” his blood to create a serum for Osborn and the scene plays out very much like how Osborn became the Green Goblin in the Ultimate Spider-Man comics, with things appearing to go well before something goes wrong and the lab explodes (and hints to the creation of Doc Ock in the process). This also leads to Osborn (very much like how the Goblin was in the Ultimate comics) kidnapping Gwen and leading into a scenario not unlike “The Night Gwen Stacy Died.” Thus by the end of the film, Gwen is dead, Spidey is blamed for the murder of Uncle Ben's killer, Gwen, AND Norman Osborn. We also get a scene reminiscient of what happens at the end of "The Night Gwen Stacy Died" in which MJ decides to stay and comfort Peter in his grief.

Oh my God! Someone who's actually read the comics!

That is a pretty brilliant line of thinking. Unfortunately, it would appeal to purists and be an unforgettable story, so they'll never make anything like that. It is beautiful though.

Thank you sir.

I'd consider myself a massive Spidey fan who's read more than my fare share of comics, and I don't feel slapped in the face. I actually feel like I've seen the character himself come to life for the first time, albeit in a flawed film.

That being said, I like the idea of a gang war type story for a sequel. That's something we haven't really seen in a movie like this and could play well. It could also play well in a story of Peter's first year of college, but they may try to keep him in high school a bit longer. I'm just bummed that they can't use the Kingpin. I'd rather introduce MJ in the second film and have her and Gwen vying for Peter's attention. She needs to be the one to pick up the pieces when Gwen is killed. Felicia would be best suited if they introduce the symbiotes in further movies.

 

[Jexx]

Did Aunt May take Peter to the hospital to get the bullet out of his leg or did Peter do it himself?

 

[Doc Ock]

I'd love to see Norman Osborn in the second film, and not necessarily become the Green Goblin but at least have him in it. (A post credits scene where he becomes the Goblin would be sweet!)

 

[Silvermoth]

They really need to dump being so dark and gloomy. That was a pretty dreadful idea.

Plus, they need to put someone in charge who actually really loves Spiderman and wants to give it a lot of energy. If you just want to make Batman I hear there's an opening for that soon.

 

[Scarlettess]

dark and gloomy? did you even see the movie? If so fine, i fully disagree. them two words are the farthest away i'd pick to describe it. it's nothing like Batman, doesn't even feel like it imo.

 

[Nathan]

It's grounded, not dark and gloomy. And when it was, something happened like Uncle Ben's death. I like the tone and visuals so much more than the Raimi Movies. Sets not so obviously looking like sets, characters that aren't just caricatures or comic relief while Peter remains being dopey throughout an entire Trilogy.

Webb gave us characters that I actually care about. I never cared about Peter and MJ in the Movies, I actually loved every little scene of Peter and Gwen. The emotional stuff when Flash is sorry and Peter brings home the eggs. Webb did a stellar job and the energy was there during all the fights.

 

[Oscorp]

I would definitely go see this film

I would have Green Goblin be the 616 version though

That was fantasic, except I wouldnt try to cram the Goblin's death in it. Just leave that for Spidey to hunt him down in the third.

Idk, but very awesome plot outline!

 

[spider-neil]

Did Aunt May take Peter to the hospital to get the bullet out of his leg or did Peter do it himself?

Pete doesn't need to go to the hospital for a bullet wound as he is a superhumaly fast healer (obviously not as fast as the Wolverine or the Hulk).
Peter's leg would have been more or less completely healed by the time he got home.

 

[©KAW]

No Goblin. No Mysterio. And certainly NO BLACK CAT. I already hate the fact that Catwoman is in TDKR.

 

[Jexx]

Yea, but how did he get the bullet out? Or was it just a graze wound? I forget.

 

[FigsNFilms]

A great villain. Is that so much to ask? Every Spider-Man villain is some science expermient gone wrong, or a faceless / cheesy villain ala Goblin, Lizard, etc.

Give me a compelling antagonist.

Hell, in ASM I rather have watched him fight local crime while having to avoid authorities for the entire movie. I enjoyed seeing him be cocky fighting local crime. Once the Lizard entered the fray the film took a MAJOR hit.

 

[Arachnid]

Would love to see Mysterio and Shocker at some point. 2 of my favs. Mysterio might look a little goofy on screen, but I found this on Deviant Art, and thought it was a pretty good redesign
