8 Great Characters Sony's Marvel Movies Have Completely Screwed Up

2. Harry Osborn

The first two Spider-Man movies did a pretty great job with Harry Osborn. Sure, things went horribly wrong in the third instalment when he went nuts and started flying around on a snowboard, but James Franco did a great job even with that lame material. The Amazing Spider-Man 2's Dane DeHaan on the other hand did not fare so well. Despite impressing in Chronicle, his performance here was horrible from start to finish. Harry's rushed story arc saw him become a Green Goblin with frizzy white hair, some weird scars, and a set of false teeth which made DeHaan sound like he was reeling off his lines with a mouthful of food. Having Harry become the Goblin before his father Norman was another pathetic attempt by this franchise to stand out from what came before, but it completely missed the point of what motivates this villain as a result.
