Norman Osborn mysteriously died on the same night that the Green Goblin had a climactic battle with Spider-Man and then was never seen again?

His public reputation never seemed to take a hit, so it seems odd that no one had any questions about it.

Normans death was reported while no one saw the Green Goblin bite it?

They probably assume the Green Goblin is in jail with the other super villains. And people doe all the time. And Harry could cover it up saying whatever he wants to say happen. So, nobody probably connected the two things together...

This is a pretty good possibility tbh.
Oscorp could easily pay people off to hide the fact that Norman was the Green Goblin.

Nobody would suspect that a respectable, wealthy industrialist was secretly a supervillain!

Harry/the company could have covered it up, but they had no real reason to. Harry himself was hell bent on blaming Spider-Man (and didn't have a reason to hide those suspicions), and didn't learn about his father's secret until the end of the second movie.

If he didn't know, then it makes sense that other people wouldn't know.

And while JJJ hated Spiderman and would be on his side, the public might not have been... Maybe...

The company has every reason to cover it up though...
If the general public knew Norman was the Green Goblin, and that it was a result of an experiment, then that would hurt the company quite a bit.

To be fair, the costume in Amazing 2 was the best live-action Spidey suit thus far.

Honestly, ASM1 > SM1 or 2 >= ASM2 (maybe) > SM3

ASM1 was pretty fucking awesome. ASM2 has some of the shitty campy garbage you'd expect from the Raimi films.

Like, that is literally the dumbest fucking explanation for what happened.

Because it's perfectly natural to drop off corpses when you didn't actually kill the person? >_> Norman was alive and, when Spidey brought him back, he was dead. It's not an outrageous conclusion given that Spidey was trying to keep why Norman died secret because that's what Norman wanted.

Maybe if it were a supervillain or something. If its a hero, I dont know if Id jump to that conclusion. Maybe Id try asking the hero what happened...

I agree with this.

Garfield was the best movie Spider-Man / Peter Parker and Emma was way better than MJ. Unfortunately everything else around them was shit.
Still prefer ASM1 to SM3 and it's about even w/ SM1 and 2. I think I like SM1 more than 2, in fact. SM2 is so damn overrated... Doc Ock is great, but the rest is awful.
