But from a strictly filmmaking standpoint it ’s well-heeled to understand whySpider - human beings : No Way Homedirector Jon Wattsand company would throw overboard creating practical tentacle for Doc Ock , prefer or else to take full advantage of what computer issue have to offer up . Either way , Molina ’s performing is the real key to making Doc Ock a in full - realized character , just as it was when he first played the purpose inSpider - Man 2 . Some things never change .
