Amazing Spider-Man 2 Opinions

What did you think of the movie? I personally thought it was pretty good. The action was quality. My only beef is with the villains. Before he was turned into Electro, Max Dillon was just some Spider-Man crazed nobody talking to himself all day long. Not exactly menacing. However afterward he suddenly completely stops talking to himself, has anger issues, and apparently the whole time he was completely resentful of Oscorp. This could have easily been fixed by one or two 5-15 second scenes. If just once Max had shown how much he resented Oscorp for mistreating him, that would be the end of it. Problem solved. Also just because you turned into a human battery doesn't mean you suddenly abandon all past mannerisms. To fix that they just needed to have him talking to himself a few times as Electro. Now onto the Green Goblin (Spoilers ahead). When Harry first learns the disease that killed his father is genetic, he immediately starts freaking out and acting like he has a few days to live when in actuality he probably had at least another 30 years. Over react much? By rushing into injecting himself with the spider venom, he caused his own horrid deformation. He knew his best friend Peter was practically a genius and Peter's father was the one who created the spiders in the first place, so logically the next step after acquiring the venom from Oscorp would be to take the venom to him so they could at least try to make sure everything is done correctly or to determine if it would work for Harry at all. Instead Harry says "what the hell", injects himself on the spot, and naturally like every other villain ever decided that Spider-Man is to blame and thinks that killing him will magically solve all of his problems. And his hair looks goofy as -blam!- after he injects the venom. Seriously, they oversold the goblin look. Besides all of that I thought it was a pretty good movie. The acting was significantly better than the first one and story wasn't that bad.

[quote] freaking out and acting like he has a few days to live when in actuality he probably had at least another 30 years. Over react much? [/quote] Were you listening ? Harry said it started before he got to New York and Norman said that the disease was working faster in Harry so he probebly did have a few days to live.

Second, he went after Spider-Man because Harry thought it was all Spidey's fault that he transformed into The Goblin and because he wanted to get revenge because Spidey didnt give Harry his blood to save Harry. [spoiler]were you paying attetion ? (No offense)[/spoiler]
