2. Plot/ Storyline
We've always known that Spider-Man's most important battle has
been within himself: the struggle between the ordinary obligations of
Peter Parker and the extraordinary responsibilities of Spider-Man. But
in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Peter Parker finds that a greater conflict
lies ahead. It's great to be Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield). For Peter
Parker, there's no feeling quite like swinging between skyscrapers,
embracing being the hero, and spending time with Gwen (Emma
Stone). But being Spider-Man comes at a price: only Spider-Man can
protect his fellow New Yorkers from the formidable villains that
threaten the city. With the emergence of Electro (Jamie Foxx), Peter
must confront a foe far more powerful than he. And as his old friend,
Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, Peter comes to realize that all
of his enemies have one thing in common: OsCorp.

4. Budget
$200,000,000 which is $30,000,000 dollars less
than The Amazing Spiderman 1. Which is
surprising as the have already made plans for 3
and 4. So it is interesting that this film cost less
to produce.
The last film had a box office of $752,216,557 so
there was plenty of money left over to back the
sequel.
