Look y'all, this reveal means so much to me. So many times in movies these days there are big reveals for the audience’s benefit that mean absolutely nothing in the context of the story or to the characters in it. I’m talking the Thanos cameo in the Avengers’ stinger, I’m talking Benedict CumberKhan in Star Trek, I’m talking about every hackneyed “This character is actually this other character” when in universe nobody knows nor cares about their true identity.

But here? This reveal? This is a Big Reveal for us, Peter B Parker, and Miles, all on different levels. We and Peter both know Doc Ock is a portly dude, not a woman. We know the name Octavius… Otto Octavius. But when she says her name is Olivia Octavius we’re clued in to the fact that Doctor Octopus is a woman in this universe. And she has Peter captive.

Miles, if he was paying attention in science class earlier in the movie, would have known her name was Olivia Octavius, but that doesn’t mean anything to him, why would it? Liv has apparently been very good about keeping her supervillainy a secret. She’s in educational videos shown in high-schools. So to Miles, the reveal here is this scientist lady, who he knew enough about to know was the head scientist at Alchemax, is a supervillain. He gets the reveal a second or two after Peter.

And the movie? It was dropping hints the entire time, confident in our expectations blinding is to the truth. Olivia’s name was partially visible when Miles got to science class. Her glasses are octagonal. The lights in her lab are octagonal. We know she’s working with the Kingpin. Why wouldn’t she be a supervillain? Because she’s hot? Hell, Peter even says he needs to reexamine his internal biases. Maybe he was telling us that we should too.

It’s a reveal for us, and for our heroes. It means something, both in-universe and out. And that makes it infinitely better than other similar reveals.

"Hm, is it ok to imagine this character as a gremlin? I don't wanna mischaracterize him." I say, as I watch the child be empowered by the words "poopy butt" and bite an office worker repeatedly

i do love that valence's spouse that he divorced from is also just a straight up transmisogynistic chaser. like the only reason they're fine with trans women is because they had office relationships with and sexually exploited trans women and that's it.

it is a phenomenal touch to the game and i love it so much.

pronoun palace is edgy in a way that is tasteful and honestly really enjoyable.

pronoun palace red clearance difficulty will have you on your knees begging and pleading for defense tiles like you'll be licking its boots and gagging for even just enough defense tiles to block the incoming hit if you can somehow combine them into a single word and pronoun palace red clearance will just press on your neck with the other boot and force you to the ground until you're drooling on the floor and it'll laugh at how pathetic you look while grinding the toes of its boot against your dumb face and. and. hang on what was i talking about
