The last thing we saw in Amazing Spider-Man 2 was the introduction of Rhino, him terrorizing New York City, Spidey leaping into battle to fight him, and the screen cutting to black. That effort did much better and was probably for the best, unless you were Mark Wahlberg or his poor chimpanzee. As far as Fox goes, despite earning over $360 million at the box office, they chose to forget the film ever happened, instead waiting a decade to reboot the franchise. Most aggravatingly, he was apparently handed a script and, when he told Fox how much it would cost to film, they acted like he was a "crazy, overspending, crazy person." When the director chooses an uncontrolled jump to concrete waiting below over dealing with a studio again for a sequel, that's probably not a good sign. There probably could've been a sequel, but Burton, when asked about helming one, remarked he would sooner leap out of a window. So, what happened? Did Thade find a way to go farther back in time than Wahlberg, effectively beating Davidson home, changing history into a timeline more beneficial for those who love bananas? We don't know, because nobody ever told us. well, we never really find out, as the Ape Police (who, sadly, never got their own spinoff film) arrive, and that's it for the film. To his shock, he discovers that what was once the Lincoln Memorial is now dedicated to Thade. In the end, Wahlberg, pursued by Tim Roth's villainous General Thade, goes back through time and returns to the present via his chimp's pod, landing in Washington, DC. Many Spidey-fans still celebrate the series, despite realizing that Marvel's got Avengers tunnel vision, and will never turn back the clock to save Cartoon Spidey's fair, red-haired maiden. As for Marvel, it was rescued from doom and morphed into a powerhouse, Disney-owned uber-studio. later apologized for traumatizing viewers with the finale, realizing that the implication MJ was never rescued wasn't actual, proper closure.
Plans for Spidey to find MJ in colonial England were shelved, and series writer John Semper Jr.
Jonah Jameson, but disgruntled, dueling TV execs.
So as it turns out, Spidey's greatest nemesis wasn't J. Marvel's Ari Avad ended up at odds with Fox Kids' Margaret Loesh, who ordered the series canceled to get at Avad. Seeking to make cash, the series was licensed to Fox to help Marvel sell their toy line. The series ended up an unfortunate victim of Marvel's then-tumultuous business dealings. Spidey rushes off to save his wife (who he never really married, because Goblin) but we never find out what happens.
