This article discusses three major plotlines from the Amazing Spider-Man movies that were left unresolved and are unlikely to be revisited.
The greatest magic trick for big budget screenwriters is planting and payoff — foreshadowing, teasing out a plot and making it all feel natural and compelling. This has led to some of the best moments for Spider-Man and Marvel Comics adaptations in general, but not every idea planted has paid off. As these franchises grow, some of the dropped plot threads are hanging more and more conspicuously, and fans are taking notice.
Dropped ideas will become particularly prevalent for the MCU in the coming years as fans take a broad look at the Multiverse Saga and wonder what ever happened to those, or to Kang the Conqueror. In fact, big pivots like that may be a good thing to help obscure some of the small, less consequential ones listed below. These pertain specifically to Spider-Man, who is good at improvising, thankfully. Here are three of the biggest plotlines dropped in Spider-Man movies that we’re not likely to see picked back up any time soon.The Amazing Spider-Man starring Andrew Garfield has introduced us to Peter’s parents, Richard and Mary Parker. We see them in the very beginning of the first movie, when they realize their home office has been burglarized. After that, they rush Peter over to Ben and May’s house and disappear for good.Peter’s parents are central to the plot of the movie as well — Peter voluntarily gives some of his father’s research to Dr. Curt Connors (Rhys Ifans) which allows him to transform into Lizard. The movie ends by teeing up even more information on Peter’s parents — an imprisoned Connors meets a shadowy figure who asks if Peter knows “the truth” about his parents.The Amazing Spider-Man 2 as well. Here, we get another tee-up about their death and disappearance, and we even learn that Peter’s father created the genetically altered spiders that gave Peter his powers. Still, it’s left hanging as if there’s more to uncover here, but to explore this storyline in the movies, we’d need to start from scratch. The comics have a deep and fascinating past for Richard and Mary Parke
