HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JAMES FRANCO (HARRY OSBORN!!) AND HAYDEN CHRISTENSEN (ANAKIN SKYALKER AKA DARTH VADER!!)
The fourth villain in the Spider-Man series, whose actor coincidentally turns 29 today, is none other than the former friend of Peter Parker who later attempts to kill Peter for allegedly killing his own father... Harry Osborn aka the NEW GOBLIN!!
BEGINNINGS
Harry is one of Peter's high school classmates, who resents the fact that his father seems to understand Peter better than him. Early in the movie, Peter becomes Spider-Man and Norman becomes the Green Goblin, but Harry remains unaware that the two are his best friend and his father. As he is growing more terrified of the Green Goblin persona, Norman begs Harry for forgiveness for not being a good father, and the two reconcile.
However, at the end of the film, the Green Goblin is killed by his own glider, after attempting to kill Spider-Man. Following Norman's last wish to not let Harry know about his villanous identity, Spider-Man removes the Goblin's costume and returns Norman's body to the Osborn mansion. Harry, seeing Spider-Man carrying Norman's body, assumes that Spider-Man has murdered his father. Harry grabs a gun from a drawer, but Spider-Man leaves before Harry can react. At Norman's funeral, a brooding Harry tells Peter that Spider-Man will pay for the death of his father.
DISCOVERY
Harry takes over his late father's career in the second film, but his business failures and unresolved resentment towards Peter, who he feels is siding with Spider-Man rather than him, cause him to slowly spiral into alcoholism. His vendetta against Spider-Man brings him into an alliance with Doctor Octopus. Harry agrees to supply Doc Ock with the tritium that Ock needs for his experiments if Ock will hunt down and deliver Spider-Man to him. After a long battle, Spider-Man is beaten by Doc Ock while civilian bystanders nobly try to defend him. Spider-Man is brought before Harry, who prepares to kill Spider-Man with a dagger. Before he does so, however, he removes Spider-Man's mask, and is shocked to see Peter's face. A dazed Peter regains consciousness, and he convinces Harry to let him go and rescue Mary Jane.
At the end of the movie, a confused Harry hallucinates, seeing his father's image in a mirror, demanding that Harry avenge him. A distraught Harry shatters the mirror with his dagger, only to find his father's hidden lair, with the Green Goblin equipment within. The scene starts with Harry going through a spooky and empty walkway. He runs into the Goblin mask and is terrified until he backs up into the shelves holding pumpkin bombs. He turns and sees the serum that made his father the Green Goblin. and later he sees the Goblin Glider in the midst of all the Goblin's equipment.
POWERS AND ABILITIES
Blinded by his thirst for evenge, Harry Osborn finally becomes a super-villain. When he enterted the "Human-Performance Enhancer" gas chamber that helped transform Norman Osborn into the Green Goblin, his strength was augmented beyond that of either Spider-Man or the Green Goblin. His durability, agility and intelligence likewise increased, but the extent of these augmentations is unknown.
As the New Goblin, Harry wears a black suit with some green elements, with a retractable facial gear constituting a pair of reflective green goggles and a green mouthpiece. Harry's suit features large, retractable blades that slide out of his right forearm, and with a short green sword mounted on his back. Instead of riding a bulky device similar to his father's Goblin Glider, Harry's choice of transport is a snowboard-shaped glider called the Sky Stick. The Sky Stick houses the Goblin's pumpkin bombs, metal pikes and a flamethrower. Its sleek oblong shape gives a greatest advantage to Harry in that can fly in vertical and horizontal modes, and can be also used as a striking weapon by him. Harry had all of the Green Goblin's equipment, including the explosive "pumpkin bombs" and the razor-edged boomerang blades.
