This is vastly different than the original cut. We have a new opening to recap the ending of Part 1 and a subsequent scene not seen in Part 1. The tone is less cartoonish and more balanced. There is a lot of new music and deleted material used to flesh out the movie. Much like Part 1 this has the focus on Peter and Gwen’s relationship without all the other distractions.

Electro is pushed back to a secondary villain and Harry is brought up to being the primary villain. Electro’s motivation is different as well. The accident simply drove him insane and he hears voices in his head.

uts and Additions:

  • Starting Part 2 with a recap of the end of Part 1

  • Cut the whole Roosevelt subplot.

  • Re-cut the opening with Gwen’s graduation speech with Spider-Man fighting the Rhino instead of the cartoonish opening it had with the car chase. Peter is no longer letting people die so he has time to crack jokes…

  • Cut all of Max Dillon’s introduction from opening

  • Rearranged graduation scenes to follow new continuity from Part 1.

  • Cut Max’s phone call during montage of Spider-Man phone calls

  • Cut Spider-Man talking to store clerk with a cold

  • Cut store clerk imitating web-shooters

  • Added deleted scene with Peter and Gwen are thinking about each other

  • Cut the whole “we don’t have a chimney” scene

  • Establish Max as he is walking into Oscorp

  • Cut all the clownish dialog. It’s simply Max in trouble for being late and his boss not believing that he created the electrical grid.

  • Shortened Max and Gwen on the elevator

  • Removed the TV wall that was used in Part 1 from the Norman Osborn death montage

  • Cut all references to everyone going home and Max has to stay by himself at Oscorp

  • Cut references to Max saying it’s his birthday

  • Trimmed the fixing of the bad wire connection and him falling into the eel tank

  • Trimmed the scene in the eel tank.

  • Added a trimmed version of the extended Morgue scene

  • Made several cuts, rearrangements and trims to Spider-Man and Electro’s first meet. The goal here is to make him less pathetic but still misunderstood and things get out of had just a bit too fast to be contained

  • Cut Peter thinking about Gwen because I used the longer scene earlier in the movie

  • Cut Harry seeing a file on the super suit. He is working on the project in the deleted scene.

  • Cut Peter watching YouTube to figure out how a battery works

  • Used deleted scene where Peter sees the battle suit and Harry tells Peter that he is dying in person rather than a phone call. There are a couple of spots where the CG skyline is missing, but like the deleted scenes in Part1, they may be just a little off but the story works better with them.

  • Cut the kiss in the broom closet

  • Made several cuts to Dr Kafka and Electro

  • Cut references to other plot lines between Peter and Gwen when she is at the Oxford interview

  • Used deleted scene of Gwen getting accepted. Color corrected Peter on the rooftop to look like early evening

  • Color corrected Harry and Felicia to also look later in the day because….

  • Added Gwen talking to Aunt May and this is supposed to be the following day

  • Cut Harry crying to Electro so much

  • Added deleted scene for Peter running home and Aunt May tells him about Gwen

  • Added Ext Harry transformation

  • Cut Spidey saying “I Hate This Song”.

  • Used the Deleted Alt ending. 1. This bookends the series as a whole. Part 1 opens with Peter and his dad and Pat 2 closes with them. 2. Garfield BRINGS IT! 3. We finally get the “With Great Power, Comes Great Responsibility” line.

  • Tons of rescoring of the movie!
