I have to say I really appreciate how Into the Spider-Verse makes no effort whatsoever to give Dr. Octavius any kind of pathos. Superhero media so often goes out of its way to establish that the main villain’s female sidekick – should one be present – has Suffered Terribly and how it’s totally Not Her Fault that she’s ended up the way she is, or at least give her a humanising moment of empathy with the protagonist, but nope. She’s just a big amoral jerk and no one likes her.

What I’m saying is that Olivia Octavius is the kind of mad scientist who would unironically respond to a hero’s horrified “what in God’s name?” by exclaiming “God had nothing to do with it!”, and I respect that.

She’s someone who was shown early on to know that snatching people from other universes causes them to painfully disintegrate, but at no point does she bother to tell Fisk this. ‘Cause she has (unspoken within the movie) motives outside of Fisk wanting his family back.

So she’s totally down with Fisk seeing his family die in front of him again (and again, and again) as long as it fits with her own goals..

I NEVER EVEN THOUGHT OF THAT. 

He essentially bankrolled her entire project to steal his family from some alternate universe and Liv, knowing damn well they’d eventually disintegrate in this universe, was like “Yep, I’ll do my best, thank so much for your contribution”

cold fucking blooded.

They better use this in a sequel cause IT’S SO GOOD AND INTERESTING

also they would be stealing fisks family from an alternate fisk so not only would she be screwing over her financial backer but she would also be screwing over the alternate version of him as well. she has no morals or ethics and wants to do science no matter the cost. Shes the best villain scientist since glados
