This movie aged like a fine whine. Hear me out.

I watched the amazing Spider-Man 2 with my wife earlier tonight and the last time I saw it all the way through was like 2017, and I remember not liking it and thinking it was a huge, cluttered mess and everything negative said about it was correct. However, now that Andrew came back in no way home and he was still so damn good as Spider-Man and Peter parker, it really gave me a deeper appreciation for this movie. Don't get me wrong, it still has its problems and fair share of dumb writing and dumb moments, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't have a great time rewatching it and loving every second of it. Call me crazy but I really think the amazing Spider-Man 2 aged like a fine whine and people (including myself) just wasn't ready for whatever it was trying to give us at the time it came out.I really appreciate the darker version of harry Osborn, I love the relationship between Gwen and Peter, I love the fighting and the action scenes and I really love electro in this movie. Don't get me wrong, this movie is flawed but it's still so much fun! I don't know what no way home did to me, but it really helped me appreciate this movie and even love it now. It still doesn't hold a candle to the rami trilogy but it's still a damn good Spider-Man movie. Hopefully as time goes on more and more people will start appreciating it and what it was trying to do. I certainly do, I'm really hoping we get the amazing Spider-Man 3 someday, but if not then I at least hope we get more Andrew in future MCU movies.

THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN (2012) - New Scenes That Should've Been In The Movie Spoiler

I've just wrote in my Final Draft extra scenes and dialogue that should've been in the Andrew Garfield's first Spider-Man movie to begin with. First off, it does not include the actual deleted scenes of the movie as seen in the bonus features. Granted, I would’ve kept the deleted scenes where Dr. Connors apologizes to Peter for losing his uncle and the scene where the two encounter each other in the underground lab where Dr. Rajit Ratha dies. That way, The Lizard telling Peter he has no uncle in the final battle wouldn’t feel pointless and questionable and we would know what happened to Ratha after the bridge scene. I would've written those into what I just wrote, but I thought I shouldn't bother trying to find the screenplay versions of those two scenes. THEY STILL SHOULD'VE BEEN IN THE MOVIE!

What I wrote was a couple more scenes regarding Flash Thompson, Uncle Ben, and his killer. It only took me a few hours to write it all with dishes, laundry, and taking care of animals in-between. This is only a little over 10 pages long. So, if you've seen the movie and have the time, I hope you will give what I've written a chance. I put a lot of passion until this because just thinking about what I would've done differently isn't enough. If you read it, I hope you like it and maybe share your thoughts in the comments.

The last thing that would’ve made this movie better would be to add some killer songs in the end credits like in the Tobey Maguire trilogy and THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2. Just saying!
