My personal rubbish theory is that at one point in the franchise, Spider is going to join the bad guys and turn against the Sullys (especially Jake because of obvious reasons like being held down in a forest and told to stay still for slaughter). The current Spider would obviously never do that, but let’s say he’s brainwashed or reach a turning point in his personal story, I don’t know.
This theory is based on two points that are absolutely not enough to convince anyone so thank you if you read this anyway haha.
Spider is WAY too nice and pure. I personally feel like there is literally no real flaw to him except being goofy and having Daddy Issues. He feels exactly like a child in an anime, one destined to be traumatized into becoming a bad guy. That type of character generally makes for a future villain (except it’s usually reversed; the audience gets to see that in the past, the villain everyone knows was impossibly different, nicer, innocent… There we could actually get to see the evolution toward corruption which would be interesting, and would make for a fun plot twist.) As I said it’s not really convincing, if you’re still here you’re a really indulgent person
I can’t believe one of the most heteronormative franchise currently on market is really going to make a lasting romance out of an interspecies couple that can’t have kids and in which the woman is several meters taller than her boyfriend. I think the whole point of Spiri is to create a strong and meaningful relationship between two people who, paralleling their fathers, are ultimately fated to fight each other, so it’s even more emotional for the audience (Kylo Ren style). And I believe, in that case, that Spider will die.
Thank you VERY MUCH for reading this pointless rant, have a nice day.
