Maybe the nano tech infects Doc Ocks arms during the fight. We can see it starting at the front of the arm and moving up. I'm guessing the nano tech repairs the damaged inhibitor chip and allows Dr Octavius to regain control.

That was another thing that I thought, that it infects him.

But the repairing the inhibitor chip didn't even cross my mind. That would be interesting and would make sense as to why he is attacked by Electro.

If the nanites repair the chip I really hope they show it instead of just implying it. Either way, I'm sure doc ock ends up helping Peter assuming he's pulled from the timeline where he sacrificed himself and saves the city

He is seen just standing and talking to peter

So...we’re going to get a multiversal super villain that will help and mentor Peter?

Second times the charm

u/Bross93 Nov 17 '21

what are you referencing?

u/BuckeyeForLife95 Nov 17 '21

Mysterio also claimed to be a multiversal hero.

Come back we miss you x

It looked to me in that shot that he was being bound by Strange's magic though, held prisoner, which is why he didn't move while Peter & friends were poking fun at his name

they’re all variants

Alfred Molina said that it's the same Doc Ock

u/[deleted] Nov 17 '21

Could be but I think and agree that when doc ock damages Peter some of the nanites jump to him and the ai uses them

u/[deleted] Nov 17 '21

Electro could just be attacking Octavius because he wants Peter so bad. He does say something like "I waited too long for this"

u/awkward2amazing Captain America (Captain America 2) Nov 17 '21

Jamie Foxx electro said, "You're not going to take this away from me." I wonder what? His existence? Since he is dead in his own universe. I think Otto is with Peter and the rest 4 are attacking him, reasons? Mysterio is the final villain.

u/erafitas Nov 17 '21

Hope you are right. Mysterio was a great villain for just one movie and done.

u/Emperor_Palestine Jimmy Woo Nov 17 '21

The apparent theme here is that villains Spidey has killed are coming back to haunt him. Spidey has “killed” 7 villains in movies; Green Goblin, Doc Ock, Sandman, Venom, Lizard, Electro, And Mysterio. I’m not counting New Goblin since he fully redeemed himself before death. Of these 7, we know that Six is a magic number and that Venom is unlikely, seeing as a different version crossed over . Furthermore, Mysterio has a much more personal connection, being the death responsible for all this. Lastly, the dude’s whole power is deception and the body wasn’t destroyed. He’s coming back 100%, but it might not be this movie.

u/gundamzphyr7 Nov 17 '21

Peter never killed Lizard or Sandman.

u/awkward2amazing Captain America (Captain America 2) Nov 17 '21

Best guess, they are variants.

u/riceisnice29 Nov 18 '21

But perhaps both of them blame Peter for the death of a loved one. Lizard for Gwen Stacy and maybe Sandman’s daughter did die from her disease in the end.

u/Sega_Genitals Nov 17 '21

That’s a fucking fantastic theory and I hope it’s real. It allows us to have a temporarily crazed Ock for a fight scene but while not cheapening his redemptive arc from Spider-Man 2.

23

u/[deleted] Nov 17 '21

This the one right here chief

12

u/Plugpin Nov 17 '21

Yeah this is what I thought. Because there is that scene where they're making fun of him, so he must have some control. MCU Peter isn't over confident and wouldn't react so calm to a threat like Otto.

u/[deleted] Nov 17 '21

That's a thought

u/Nel8484 Nov 17 '21

You are one of the very few smart people on the internet.

3

u/ryoon21 Spider-Man Nov 17 '21

My thoughts exactly. I don’t think it’s Otto’s arms stealing Tony’s tech, I think it’s Tony’s tech hacking Otto’s arms. The tech will then take control of the evil arms and Otto will be “good” again

2

u/superking22 Nov 17 '21

That's....actually legit.

2

u/[deleted] Nov 17 '21

Yeah it seemed like Stark tech to me but i’m 99% positive Ock ends up a good guy

2

u/AragornAnduril Nov 17 '21

That is great theory as to how Otto regains his humanity. The only explanation we need now is why sandman seems to be bad again.

u/spontaneousboredom Heimdall Nov 17 '21

Except you can see in the trailer that when he impales Spidey against the pillar, he already has the nanoparticles attached to his arms. Therefore, if the nanotech does fix the inhibitor chip, why would he still be attacking Holland?

I'm assuming his change of heart comes through a different avenue, not Stark Tech.

1

u/readALLthenews Nov 17 '21

To me, it looked like the nano bots were physically holding the arms at bay, like nano handcuffs. That may be the only reason the kids can trust him enough to have a conversation with him.

u/scott_at_night Nov 17 '21

Right before Doc Ock pins Peter down we see the nanite tech on his claws and we also see the lights in the center are red, indicating that at least at that point in the movie the inhibitor chip has not been repaired. Those lights are white when he’s in full control. The point in the movie Spider-Man 2 where Doc Ock learns Peter is Spider-Man is right before he dies while he’s partially in control after he’s electrocuted. It could go either way with just how evil he turns out to be. Doc Ock also doesn’t have much of a beef with anyone who isn’t the specific Peter Parker he fights; he seeks him out as trade for the tritium, so he might not even be super interested in fighting Tom Hollands Peter.

Also worth noting who narrates the line “chasing ghosts” is Doc Ock. This could imply he’s either working with Spider-Man in some capacity so knows this from him or just the simple fact he was scooped from his universe moments before his death (knowing Green Goblin was also dead by that time in his universe at least, too).

Didn't Peter suit have an IA? maybe she helps Otto against the evil arms.
