Brief Synopsis:
This is vastly different than the original cut. We have a new opening to recap the ending of Part 1 and a subsequent scene not seen in Part 1. The tone is less cartoonish and more balanced. There is a lot of new music and deleted material used to flesh out the movie. Much like Part 1 this has the focus on Peter and Gwen's relationship without all the other distractions.
Electro is pushed back to a secondary villain and Harry is brought up to being the primary villain. Electro's motivation is different as well. The accident simply drove him insane and he hears voices in his head.

Intention:
The pendulum had swung too far the other way with these movies. Where the first one took it too seriously, this one went cartoonish in moments. My goal is to create a more consistent tone between these movies as it it now being done as one longer movie in 2 parts. So I needed to lighten up the first one a bit and tighten this up to match it better.

Cuts and Additions:
- Starting Part 2 with a recap of the end of Part 1
- Cut the whole Roosevelt subplot.
- Re-cut the opening with Gwen's graduation speech with Spider-Man fighting the Rhino instead of the cartoonish opening it had with the car chase. Peter is no longer letting people die so he has time to crack jokes...
- Cut all of Max Dillon’s introduction from opening
- Rearranged graduation scenes to follow new continuity from Part 1.
- Cut Max’s phone call during montage of Spider-Man phone calls
- Cut Spider-Man talking to store clerk with a cold
- Cut store clerk imitating web-shooters
- Added deleted scene with Peter and Gwen are thinking about each other
- Cut the whole “we don’t have a chimney” scene
- Establish Max as he is walking into Oscorp
- Cut all the clownish dialog. It’s simply Max in trouble for being late and his boss not believing that he created the electrical grid.
- Shortened Max and Gwen on the elevator
- Removed the TV wall that was used in Part 1 from the Norman Osborn death montage
- Cut all references to everyone going home and Max has to stay by himself at Oscorp
- Cut references to Max saying it’s his birthday
- Trimmed the fixing of the bad wire connection and him falling into the eel tank
- Trimmed the scene in the eel tank.
- Added a trimmed version of the extended Morgue scene
- Made several cuts, rearrangements and trims to Spider-Man and Electro’s first meet. The goal here is to make him less pathetic but still misunderstood and things get out of had just a bit too fast to be contained
- Cut Peter thinking about Gwen because I used the longer scene earlier in the movie
- Cut Harry seeing a file on the super suit. He is working on the project in the deleted scene.
- Cut Peter watching YouTube to figure out how a battery works
- Used deleted scene where Peter sees the battle suit and Harry tells Peter that he is dying in person rather than a phone call. There are a couple of spots where the CG skyline is missing, but like the deleted scenes in Part1, they may be just a little off but the story works better with them.
- Cut the kiss in the broom closet
- Made several cuts to Dr Kafka and Electro
- Cut references to other plot lines between Peter and Gwen when she is at the Oxford interview
- Used deleted scene of Gwen getting accepted. Color corrected Peter on the rooftop to look like early evening
- Color corrected Harry and Felicia to also look later in the day because….
- Added Gwen talking to Aunt May and this is supposed to be the following day
- Cut Harry crying to Electro so much
- Added deleted scene for Peter running home and Aunt May tells him about Gwen
- Added Ext Harry transformation
- Cut Spidey saying “I Hate This Song”.
- Used the Deleted Alt ending. 1. This bookends the series as a whole. Part 1 opens with Peter and his dad and Pat 2 closes with them. 2. Garfield BRINGS IT! 3. We finally get the “With Great Power, Comes Great Responsibility” line.
- Tons of rescoring of the movie!
- Cut the whole Roosevelt subplot.

This was a great edit that streamlined it significantly. The villains were much more compelling and the ending was perfect since the series ended there.
One minor criticism is that some of the new music didn’t work for me and I preferred the original score more.

The biggest thing keeping me back from replacing the original cut with this one is the rescoring. Hans Zimmer's score for this movie was fantastic, and I really don't see why a lot of it was removed here. It leaves scenes sounding awkward, and a lot of the songs that are used to replace don't really fit and feel generic. This is the biggest piece of feedback I can give this edit.
Narratively, Electro being a more secondary villain works in a way, but it leaves his motivation empty and his ultimate contribution to the plot non-existent.
Other than those things though, this is a great edit! The intro sequence with New York, New York is really great and putting Rhino there feels really cool and makes a lot of sense. Removing the Peter and Gwen re-break up plot was only a good thing, because it felt pointless and superfluous in the original cut. The ending is also pretty good (and look, I love The Lord of the Rings, but that soundtrack does not fit in Spider-Man). It gives good closure to the parents storyline, and having the movie end with Peter not being Spider-Man is good, because the original cut devalues Gwen's death waaaaaaay to quickly.
If Lantern is still looking to fix this edit up, those are the things I would recommend changing. Going back to the original score from most of the re-scores, and giving Electro back more motivation. If those things were changed, it would greatly increase my motivation to replace the original TASM2 with this edit.

I am glad to have had the opportunity to watch this! There were some things I enjoyed, but others I could not get past.
I enjoyed the cutting of Peter and Gwen breaking up again, as it felt repetitive to have them break up in the first one, get back together, and then break up again. It does help the first part of the movie breath a bit, and gives more time to focus on the new additions of Max and Harry.
Max's intro is much better, making him not a complete cringe fest this time around. Giving Harry more time in the beginning is also helpful.
The trimming and shortening of cringe was done as well as it could be, but the main thing that took me away from all of this was the rescoring. I admire the author's ability to rescore, as it is quite an undertaking. Many of the songs just did not fit, and the result were missing sounds from the movie from cutting the soundtrack. The Times Square sequence just sounded flat.
I like the direction the Editor was going for. Moving scenes around helped a bit, and adding deleted scenes as well. Maybe there just is not much more that could be done to improve the movie. I just wish there was more to work with to streamline the whole thing.

This is a huge step up in quality from part 1. It's really impressive how much work was put into this, especially with the rescoring! It felt like almost every scene was rescored.
Biggest positives of this movie for me are more focus on Harry and less on Max. Though Max's motivations are more unclear, cutting most of his cartoonishness is a big improvement, and his creepiness works perfectly. The deleted scenes flesh out Harry more and build to a much better payoff at the end. With a lot of the fluff cut out of the movie Peter and Gwen's relationship is able to breathe better which makes the ending payoff much more tragic. The ending scene with his dad is great too, I had never seen it before.
Most of the deleted scenes are much higher quality than the ones in part 1. Some of them were noticeable but not distracting. Because of the audio changes across the whole movie you will notice sometimes when the sound effects don't quite match, but you won't notice most of the time unless you are looking for it.
Only negatives would be my personal opinion on some of the added song choices. I don't think all of them matched too well, especially the Lord of the Rings song at the end with his dad.
Just one more commendation for the audio work. While it's not perfect I'm not sure I've ever seen such extensive audio reworking on a fan edit before. Amazing feat!

So my wife and I watched Amazing Spider-Man Part 1 (based on the first movie) a couple of nights ago, and this last night, we watched Part 2....
From the opening scenes, I was INSTANTLY drawn into this movie. The further it went, the more I enjoyed it... so much so, that I liked it even better than Part 1.
I originally picked up the DVDs for both movies close to release date years back, watched them once, was not really drawn into them, attempted to watch them a second time and gave up... they did nothing for me. I would have gladly ignored them if it weren't for the fabulous "No Way Home" and Garfield's appearance in that movie. I suddenly had reason to go back and re-watch these two movies, but I kept putting it off... the movies were simply *meh* in my mind... and then I read reviews for Lantern51's fanedit and it convinced me to give THESE versions a shot...
The first movie is much improved because Peter Parker is improved. He's much more likeable. It's now watchable. But Part 2 is FANTASTIC. No, really, this is a GOOD movie. If you're like me, the 2nd movie was totally forgettable in its original form. Now, every piece of this film is meaningful, dramatic, exciting, or plot-relevant.
You may still walk away from this film preferring the 3 Raimi movies or the latest Tom Holland movies, but what Lantern51 has done here is produce a perfectly enjoyable 2-part Spider-man film entry that you will WANT to re-watch from time to time, ESPECIALLY in a run-up to a re-watch of "No Way Home."
One of the most important aspects of a "good film" is the concentration on the key characters. This fanedit brings the focus where it belongs, and that is PRIMARILY on Peter Parker and Gwen's relationship. Every time they are on screen together, the chemistry works. Of the two films, Part 2 is DEFINITELY my favorite.
There's no point in nit-picking this fanedit because what Lantern51 has produced is so far above and beyond what was released theatrically, you will never want to go back to the original, unless it's to remember how bad it really was.
