The best thing that came from The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is that its failure led to Spidey joining the Marvel cinematic universe. Thanks, Marc Webb!
Before we move to greener pasture, let’s take a look at several behind-the-scenes stills from set photographer Niko Tavernise. These newly-released images are of the never-before-seen, but much talked about, alternate scenes that proceeded the death of Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone).

In the theatrical version, when Green Goblin/Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan) and Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield) have their final confrontation in the clock tower, Green Goblin is knocked unconscious. We never see him wake up and Peter gets to cry his eyes out uninterrupted.
