Who am I? You sure you want to know? The story of my life is not for the faint of heart. If somebody told you it was a happy tale, if somebody said I was just your average guy, not a care in the world... somebody lied....
WRONG MOVIE
So for those of you who don't know, the line I opened with was the opening line of 2002s Spider-Man. That movie spawned 2 sequels, but the fourth film was canceled. The series was rebooted in 2012 as "The Amazing Spider-Man", the same title of the comic book that the webhead starred in.
Spider-Man is the story of teenage Peter Parker who was bitten by a radioactive spider, and gains extraordinary powers. After letting a crook that he could of stopped escape, that same crook murders his Uncle Ben. Peter then develops a masked alter ego "Spider-Man" to track down the crook, but then decides to use his powers to stop crime in the city of New York.
The newest film in the franchise "The Amazing Spider-Man 2", to be released May 2 2014, has made me speculate about what I think will happen.
1.Gwen will Die
It makes perfect sense, in the original stories Captain Stacy died a few issues prior to her. He died in the previous film. Also the Green Goblin is who killed her in the original stories(if you don't count spidey's web). He is debuting in this film.
2. Norman Osborne is not Gobby
yep, this time around Harry is the Goblin, though a leaked trailer said that Norman had died and left everything to Harry. I would say this will take place sometime in the first act.
3. A slew of Villains
If you watch the trailer (which i have below) Green Goblin, Rhino, Electro, Vulture and Doctor Octopus, are all teased. I've also heard that venom was mentioned on one of the computer panels. This is too many villains for the second film of the series. The originals films introduced 5 villains in 3 movies. Here were introducing/teasing 7 villains in 2 movies.
4. Ben's Killer
I think that the plot of Peter catching Uncle Ben's Killer might play over into this film. The original film focused maybe 15 minutes on this subject and resolved it, In The Amazing Spider-Man it focused 20 or so minutes and then dropped the subject, probably because this was an old plot line, and they wanted to focus on the new stuff they added to the story. So It's reasonable to think that this will be touched on at least in the upcoming film.
5. Richard and Mary Parker's death
So in the original movies, Richard and Mary Parker are not mentioned.
In the newer films they have a lot more to do with the story. From watching the trailer, plus comments in the first film, i think that this will be another one of he major plots for this film.
I personally can't wait for this new film to come out, and see how everything plays out. Will you guys go to see it? Do you think that there's too many villains? Comment your thoughts below!
