* AgeLift: Rather older than any other version of Norman (who are portrayed as being in their forties or early fifties), at least going by the actor's age.

* DisabledInTheAdaptation: The comics Norman has never had an arc where his health was in danger. The MythArc of this series is due to this Norman being terminally ill. Additionally, the hologram of him in the first film shows him wearing glasses.

* TruerToTheText: This version is the most faithful adaptation of the character among the three cinematic incarnations.

!! ComicBook/NormanOsborn

* AdaptationalHeroism: Since we don't know for certain that he will become Vulture, as many have use that identity in the comics, he is an example of this as there is nothing to suggest he is anything more than a scientist.* EarlyBirdCameo: [[AccidentalPun No pun intended, should he become the Vulture.]] He is mentioned by ''The Daily Bugle'' as a scientist that is working on a flight-capable military harness, and the wings in question appear on the wall that Gustav Fiers passes by. A closer view of the wings he made appears in the CreativeClosingCredits.

* AbortedArc: WordOfGod says that [[spoiler: Norman Osborn was originally planned to eventually come BackFromTheDead to take on a more villainous role as he did in the comics. After the franchise was cancelled, there was no chance for such an arc to actually play out.]]

* Jerkass: He mocks Max to his face, rudely orders him to get to work, and to top it off, he forces Max to work overtime on his birthday.

* AdaptationalHeroism: Thanks to the fact he never becomes [[Characters/SpiderManCentralRoguesGallery the supervillain Spider-Slayer]].
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: It seems to be a pattern that anyone high up in Oscorp turns out to be

* HateSink: He is a corrupt employee of Oscorp who seeks to usurp Harry Osborn as CEO after his father's death. Menken has Max Dillon, A.K.A. Electro committed to Ravencroft, where he uses footage of Max to [[FrameUp frame]] Harry for the accident that turned him into Electro. Menken kicks Harry out of Oscorp, but not before [[KickTheDog spitefully]] telling him that he's going to die a horrible death and no one will care.

* KickTheDog: After causing Harry to lose his position as head of Oscorp, Menken twists the knife by saying Harry will die a horrible death and no one will care.

* KickTheDog:
** He reminds Max about his ForgottenBirthday... After forcing him to work overtime.
** He also insults Spider-Man in front of Max, who had just made his admiration of the superhero clear.

* AdaptationalModesty: By virtue of not becoming Black Cat, who is probably the biggest MsFanservice of all Spider-Man characters, having [[BoobsOfSteel very generous assets]] and often boasting them in her skintight catsuit. This Felicia spends most of her screentime in a professional black dress.

* SweaterGirl: Helen is mostly wearing turtlenecks.

* SatelliteCharacter: They are strictly characterized as Gwen and George's relatives.

* AlternateSelf: Has one on [[Characters/SpiderManTrilogyGreenGoblin Earth-96283]], and another distinct version is set to appear in ''Spider-Man: Freshman Year''.

* AlternateSelf: Has one on [[Characters/SpiderManTrilogyOthers Earth-96283]] as Dennis Carradine, who was once believed to be the one who killed Ben Parker.

* AlternateSelf: Has one on [[Characters/SonysSpiderManUniverse another Earth]].

* AlternateSelf: Has one on [[Characters/SpiderManTrilogySupervillains Earth-96283]].

* AdaptationalHeroism: Since we don't know for certain that he will become Vulture, as many have use that identity in the comics, he is an example of this as there is nothing to suggest he is anything more than a scientist.
* AlternateSelf: Has one on [[Characters/MCUAdrianToomes Earth-199999]].
* EarlyBirdCameo: [[AccidentalPun No pun intended, should he become the Vulture.]] He is mentioned by ''The Daily Bugle'' as a scientist that is working on a flight-capable military harness, and the wings in question appear on the wall that Gustav Fiers passes by. A closer view of the wings he made appears in the CreativeClosingCredits.

* AlternateSelf: Has one on [[Characters/SpiderManTrilogyOthers Earth-96283]] and another on [[Characters/MCUCitizensNewYorkCityMidtownSchoolOfScienceAndTechnology Earth-199999]].

* AlternateSelf: Has one on [[Characters/MCUCitizensNewYorkCityMidtownSchoolOfScienceAndTechnology Earth-199999]].

* AlternateSelf: Interestingly he has [[DecompositeCharacter two equivalents]] on Earth-96283: one as [[Characters/SpiderManTrilogyOthers Dennis Carradine]], who is the man Peter chose not to stop when he had the chance, and [[Characters/SpiderManTrilogySupervillains Flint Marko]], who is the one who actually killed Ben Parker.

* AlternateSelf: Has one on [[Characters/SpiderManTrilogyMainCharacters Earth-96283]] and an equivalent on [[Characters/MCUCitizensNewYorkCityMidtownSchoolOfScienceAndTechnology Earth-199999]] named [[Characters/MCUMichelleJones Michelle Jones]].

* AlternateSelf: Has one on [[Characters/SpiderManTrilogyMainCharacters Earth-96283]] and on [[Characters/MCUCitizensNewYorkCity Earth-199999]].

* DarkChick: Subverted - given that she's the assistant of the main villain of the second film, it seems as though she would fit the mold. However, she doesn't do anything evil, and only tries to help Harry get better. [[spoiler:Had she assumed her persona as Black Cat as intended for future films, it's still unknown if she'd become this or an ally to Spidey like she occasionally is in the comics]].

* AlternateSelf: Has one on [[Characters/MCUOperationCerberus Earth-199999]] as Carson Wolf.

* HumanPopsicle: According to [[http://www.movieweb.com/news/shocking-amazing-spider-man-2-post-credit-scene-reveals-huge-spoiler pictures]] on the set of ''The Amazing Spider-Man 2'', [[spoiler:the [[ReportsOfMyDeathWereGreatlyExaggerated rumors of his death were greatly exaggerated]], as he was cryogenically frozen until a cure for the disease could be found. However, he is also a [[BrainInAJar head in a jar]] because of the effects of the disease.]]

!![[Characters/VenomFlashThompson Eugene "Flash" Thompson]]

* MythologyGag: Him being a basketball instead of a football player is a nod to his ''Ultimate Marvel'' counterpart.

** He apologizes to Peter about his uncle's death, and it's even implied he's deliberately offering himself up for a beating to give Peter an InUniverseCatharsis (though that would itself imply that his idea of catharsis is getting or giving physical abuse).
** Gwen mentions Flash attended her father's funeral, implicitly to support her.

* SweaterGirl: Helen is mostly wearing turtlemecks.
* TraumaCongaLine: [[spoiler: First, they lose George. Then two years later, Gwen dies.]]

* TwoGirlsToATeam: Gwen and Helen are the only female in the family.
* YankTheDogsChain: [[spoiler:They seem to have somewhat recovered from George's death during Gwen's graduation, hopeful as she's got her life ahead of her. And then Gwen tragically dies thanks to Harry's pettiness.]]

* AdaptationalNiceGuy: In the comics, Flash during high school had the tendency of mercilessly bullying Peter Parker (but he greatly admires Spider-Man) and then he and Peter become close friends in college. Here, while he initially still bullied Peter, Flash eventually becomes friends with Peter during high school instead of college.

* BigJerkOnCampus: Popular with pretty much everyone but Peter and Gwen. He starts to transition into a genuine BigManOnCampus by the end though.

* HumiliationConga: Peter submits him to one after he gains his powers, when Flash ruins the work of another student. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0roGH0afL3Y See it by yourself]].

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: This version is an even bigger jerk than the original trilogy, but has the humanizing aspects that weren't included. By the end of the movie, his "bullying" of Peter comes across more as friendly teasing.

* LovesMyAlterEgo: Averted. Unlike the comics where he's a jerk to Peter while admiring Spider-Man, here he admires Spider-Man while becoming nicer to Peter.
* MythologyGag: Him being a basketball instead of a football player is a nod to his ''Ultimate'' counterpart.

* TookALevelInKindness: He becomes a JerkWithAHeartOfGold by the end of the first movie, and is much friendlier with Peter and Gwen in the DeletedScene of the second movie.

* AdaptationalHeroism: Zigzagged. He never becomes the Green Goblin due to [[spoiler:[[DeathByAdaptation the fact he dies shortly after his introduction.]] Some of his [[CompositeCharacter treats and actions as the Goblin from the comics are given to his son instead.]] However, he still attempted weaponize Richard Parker and Curtis Connors' research and may have arranged for the Parkers' deaths when they discovered this.]]

* CorruptCorporateExecutive: Is Oscorp's CEO and has been monitoring Peter, amongside numerous other illegal projects.

* DeadAlternateCounterpart: PlayedWith in regards to his iteration from [[Characters/SpiderManTrilogy Earth-96283]]. That version was dead at the end of [[Film/SpiderMan1 his first movie]], with this Norman following suit partway through ''TASM 2''. ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome'' resurrects the Earth-96283 Norman thanks to the [[Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse Earth-199999]] Peter Parker messing up one of Doctor Strange's spells, so ''TASM'' Norman winds up being the DeadAlternateCounterpart to that Norman.

Resident JerkJock and BigManOnCampus. Though he predictably targets Peter, [[DramaticIrony he grows to idolize Spider-Man]]. He is revealed to have a HiddenHeartOfGold after Peter's uncle dies.

* BigManOnCampus: To pretty much everyone but Peter and Gwen.

* BullyingADragon: Surprisingly [[AvertedTrope averted]]. After Peter gains his powers, the two have altercations: in the first, [[SmugSuper Peter is actually the provoker]] and in the second, Flash simply wanted to give his condolences to Peter for Ben's death.

* HeroWorshipper: Near the end of the film. True to his comic book counterpart, Flash becomes a Spider-Man fanboy.

* LovesMyAlterEgo: Averted. Unlike the comics where he's a jerk to Peter while admiring Spider-man, here he admires Spider-Man while becoming nicer to Peter.

* PetTheDog: He apologizes to Peter about his uncle's death, and it's even implied he's deliberately offering himself up for a beating to give Peter an InUniverseCatharsis (though that would itself imply that his idea of catharsis is getting or giving physical abuse).
* TookALevelInKindness: He becomes a JerkWithAHeartOfGold by the end of the first movie.

* AbusiveParents: Sent his 11-year-old son to boarding school and failed to be a good father. He doesn't appear to show any regret when Harry calls him out on this.
* AdaptedOut: His role as Green Goblin is completly left out of the franchise due to the fact that [[spoiler:[[DeathByAdaptation he dies as soon as he is introduced]]. For this, he never has even the change to become the Green Goblin as in the comics.]]
* AdaptationOriginConnection: Better said his company who has a hand in creating most of the franchise´s villains and also being responsible for not-used weapons like Doc Ock´s mechanical arms or Vulture´s wings. Like in the ''ComicBook/UltimateMarvel''-timeline he´s involved in the accident that gives Peter his powers - but this time, [[spoiler: he worked on the gen-manipulated spiders together with Peter´s father, hoping for a cure for his disease]].
* AdaptationalHeroism: He never becomes the Green Goblin due to [[spoiler:[[DeathByAdaptation the fact he dies shortly after his introduction.]] Some of his [[CompositeCharacter treats and actions as the Goblin from the comics are given to his son instead.]]]]

* AmbiguousSituation: Although a DeletedScene suggest that he's NotQuiteDead and that [[HumanPopsicle his head was cryogenically preserved in a jar]], it's unknown if this is canonical or not. [[spoiler:As Peter never mentions having encountered Norman Osborn in person while dealing with Norman's [[Characters/MCUGreenGoblin Earth-96283 counterpart]] in ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome'', it can be implied that Osborn did die and his suggested survival isn't canonical or that Peter has yet to encounter a resurrected Osborn.]]

* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler:He apparently dies of the painful disease he's carried, which is just as well considering the suffering he's been responsible for. This may be subverted by evidence of being preserved cryogenically, which implies he's NotQuiteDead.]]
* BodyHorror: The sickness he has leaves him bedridden, makes him look seriously unwell, and causes his voice to become guttural. Also he has ''claws''.

* CorruptCorporateExecutive: Is Oscorp's CEO and has been monitoring Peter, among numerous other illegal projects.
* DarkLordOnLifeSupport: A very shady CorruptCorporateExecutive and the film's GreaterscopeVillain is seen barely hanging on life via several medical apparatus.

* TheDreaded: Other characters seem to be afraid of him, which is pretty reasonable given his counterpart's personality. It might just be the fact that could fire them at any time.

* TheGhost: Never appears on screen in the first film, only discussed by other characters. No longer the case as of the second film, as Norman does show up in person.

* HumanPopsicle: According to [[http://www.movieweb.com/news/shocking-amazing-spider-man-2-post-credit-scene-reveals-huge-spoiler pictures]] on the set of ''The Amazing Spider-Man 2'', [[spoiler:the rumors of his death were greatly exaggerated, as he was cryogenically frozen until a cure for the disease could be found. However, he is also a [[BrainInAJar head in a jar]] because of the effects of the disease.]]

* YouSeeImDying: He's dying of an unknown disease.

* DecompositeCharacter: Has his usual role in the comics and other versions of being the original Green Goblin [[spoiler:and Gwen Stacy's killer]] is taken by his son, Harry, and his other role of being a ruthless businessman is given to CanonForeigner Doctor Rajit Ratha.

* AdaptationalRelationshipOverhaul: Assuming the woman that appeared at the end of the film was indeed still Mary Jane, then because of all the scenes being cut she never met Peter in this version with ''No Way Home'' [[spoiler:confirming that Peter doesn't know anyone named MJ]].
