The movie could've been a lot better.
>Peter begins working at the Daily Bugle and meets J. Jonah Jameson and Robbie Robertson. Jameson's hatred of Spider-Man is born when the Bugle's print room is damaged in a battle between Spider-Man and Electro.
>Mary-Jane Watson is Peter's neighbor, a waitress and part-time mechanic who lives with her abusive father and is fascinated by Spider-Man, having a tattoo of him on his wrist, but is also attracted to Peter. Spider-Man later threatens MJ's father into leaving her alone.
>Max Dillon lives his domineering, wheelchair-bound mother who mistreats him. Returning home after his accident, Max finds his mother standing up and celebrating the hush money she received from OsCorp to not report his disappearance, and accidentally kills her, causing him to spiral into insanity.
>Peter gives Harry his blood, which turns Harry into the Green Goblin. Harry flees to Norman's old boathouse after OsCorp is stolen from him by Rajit Ratha, where he finds the exoskeleton Norman had used to stay alive and is later located by Electro, who escapes from Ravencroft hellbent on revenge on Harry, whom he believes authorized the experiments on him. The two then join forces to get revenge on OsCorp and Spider-Man.
>Peter nearly kills Harry after Harry taunts him for failing to save Gwen.
>At Gwen's grave, Peter is visited by his father, Richard, who faked his death and encourages Peter to become Spider-Man once again.
>Aleksei Sytsevich builds the Rhino himself out of old Soviet-era weaponry to challenge Spider-Man.
>Gustav Fiers reports to Norman, who had faked his death in order to clone a healthy young body for himself, having used Harry as a pawn to test the effects of a sample of Peter's blood in DNA affected by the Osborns' disease. Norman is also in possession of a symbiotic suit developed by Richard and him.
>No references to the Sinister Six.
