Having trouble figuring out the insane plot of the hot mess that was The Amazing Spider-Man 2? No worries. Our patented Spoiler FAQ is here to help decipher what the hell happened in all those weird, awkward scenes where Spidey wasn't fighting people. Spoilers ahead, obviously! -

Having watched both movies, The Amazing Spider-Mans are not actually about Spider-Man. Peter Parker is not central to the plot.
This is the tale of OsCorp, the wacky little company that either kills its employees, or gives them superpowers (or both), and the results thereafter. So far, the one fellow who's managed to survive the OsCorp Experience (TM) without turning into a COMPLETE asshole is Peter Parker.
So who wants to watch the Amazing OsCorp Trilogy?
I like to think of this movie as a metaphor for the evils of Dubstetp (Electro) and the virtues of alternative music (Spider-Man). In the end alternative music wins because it's inventive and pure and Dubstep is all flash in no substance, but alternative's victory doesn't come without hurting at least some of those you love who only listen to pop (Gwen) and will never understand "good music."
The coffee had been steadily growing more and more execrable for the space of three weeks, till at last it had ceased to be coffee altogether and had assumed the nature of mere discolored water — so this person said. He said it was so weak that it was transparent an inch in depth around the edge of the cup. As he approached the table one morning he saw the transparent edge — by means of his extraordinary vision long before he got to his seat. He went back and complained in a high-handed way to Capt. Duncan. He said the coffee was disgraceful. The Captain showed his. It seemed tolerably good. The incipient mutineer was more outraged than ever, then, at what he denounced as the partiality shown the captain’s table over the other tables in the ship. He flourished back and got his cup and set it down triumphantly, and said:
“Just try that mixture once, Captain Duncan.”
He smelt it — tasted it — smiled benignantly — then said:
“It is inferior — for coffee — but it is pretty fair tea.”
