The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Villains: 6 Things That Look Great (And 3 That Suck)

3. Too Much Electro

This isn't a huge deal - and Electro looks very cool, which further emphasises that it's not all that bad - but it really does look as if there's going to be too much Electro in this movie. The trailer focuses on him almost as much as it focuses on Spider-Man and with Rhino, Norman Osborn and Harry Osborn also in the picture, that could turn out to be something of a shame. It's hard to see any Spider-Man movie with Norman Osborn present portraying Osborn as a mere minor character - he's far too important in the Spider-Man ethos for that and Chris Cooper's casting would be wasted if such a brilliant actor didn't get a hell of a lot of screen time. Rhino is a much less interesting character, but this formidable looking depiction - and the fact that the very awesome Paul Giamatti is portraying him - would be wasted if he merely had a small role too. And Dane DeHaan's Harry Osborn looks potentially brilliant too. It'll be great to see him have a major role as Spider-Man's friend-turned-enemy. Essentially, Electro looks fantastic - but let's hope he doesn't completely overshadow what is a great cast.
