it's morbidly funny to me that something like the raimiverse takes the idea of peter acting with the intent to kill and

a) negates there being an actual death,

and b) utilises this more to explore the idea of who deserves to live and die at the hands of another and perhaps most importantly, is it possible to even determine that and should someone have that power

and then you've just got 2099 Miguel out here having sadman moments in the rain like ah fuck i'm not sorry at all i let vulture fall, fuck that guy. <- struggling w the fact he's had enough character development to recognise the harm in this world for what it is and that he doesn't want to turn away from it anymore

#all jokes aside i really like his confrontation w vulture because in all previous battles. miguel's retaliation is purely reactive #as the words suggests lmao #hes defending himself from cops or corpo hired bounty hunters. and the deaths there are literally accidental on his part #but miguel punching vulture and calling him a sick freak for cannibalising downtown residents and other gang members #is the first time (to my memory) that you have him esculate a conflict #and it FEELS startling because of that. because while miguel was willing to walk away from alchemax for the unethical experiments yeah #he had no plan to like. fight back against that system #hitting vulture is literally an actualisation of miguel's disgust w not only the man himself but the beginings of his genuine idealogical #opposition to the capitalist idealogy vulture himself BOUGHT INTO #head in hands can i please top analysing this man now please my brain is like a prison #tunes talks 2099
