10 Recent Movie Scenes That Shocked The World

While it would be easy to point to the worst kept secret in Marvel Cinematic Universe history as the most stunning occurrence contained within the biggest movie of recent times, another moment arguably left folks reeling more than the Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire web-filled-comebacks.

With everyone from Zendaya's MJ to Happy Hogan being teased as heartbreaking casualties of the incoming multiversal war heading Peter Parker's way in the marketing material, few were ready for the sight of Marisa Tomei's Aunt May biting the dust amidst the rubble during the film's emotional climax.

And with May seemingly brushing off the vicious attack from a devious returning Willem Dafoe's Green Goblin, the reveal of her injuries being worse than originally assumed felt like a sucker punch of sorts when all was said and done. Mix in a devastating performance by Tom Holland's Parker as he comes to terms with May's final moments post-"great power, great responsibility" utterance and you've easily got one of the most devastating beats in recent movie memory.

That, coupled with every person on the planet forgetting his existence, made for one hell of a tough pill to swallow for both Peter and the MCU fandom at large.
