The SPOT's Motivation is more PATHETIC in SPIDER-MAN: ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE... #shorts

The Spot's motivation might be more pathetic than we think. I couldn't help but notice his appearance changed from his normal look to a more polished one in his flashback? It seems like he's trying to shape his story to fit his own image. This could mean there's more to why he became Miles' nemesis. While he claims to hate Miles for accidentally turning him into The Spot, his actual drive appears to be about seeking validation and being taken seriously. He keeps repeating it, like someone desperately trying to convince their crush. We know The Spot faced rejection from his family, so to assume other relationships turned him down too. My hunch is that The Spot projected his insecurities onto Miles, using him to prove himself to Doc Ock. Throughout the movie, Miles and Spot's arcs are set up as parallels. This mirrors Miles' own desire to be seen as a legitimate Spider-Man by Gwen, his crush. This connection leads me to believe that Doc Ock might have influenced The Spot's motivation, even just for the sake of this parallel. In short, The Spot's rejection by Doc Ock fueled his insecurity, and now he's taking it out on Miles. #shorts #spidermanacrossthespiderverse #milesmorales #didyouknow #moviefacts #moviedetails #spidermanintothespiderverse
