When Garfield ’s Spidey sense inadequate because the other Spider - Men have fought aliens and he only ever struggle “ a Russian armed in a mechanical rhino suit , ” Maguire ’s Spidey lifts him up and assure him , “ You ’re awing ! ”
Saving MJ

Not only doesNo Way Homerevisit this melodic theme ; it ’s the moving picture ’s central theme . inspire by Aunt May ’s unwavering optimism ( even in the typeface of death ) , Peter remains compulsive to give the multiversal baddie their own second chance when they come back to their various worlds .
