Spiderman 2 - the citizens of NY
Unlike the first movie, in which normal citizens were pretty seen as cowards, unable to affect any good, the average people are better in this movie, fitting well with Aunt May's words about heroes. (See post about Peter Parker, S 2.) In one scene, spiderman saves a train full of people and almost dies in the process, and he loses his mask. They are shocked that he's just a kid as he awakens to consciousness, and they promise not to tell his secret. Then they try to protect him from Dr. Oc. It's one of the most touching scenes in the movie. Even Mary Jane and Aunt May get in the act and save Peter at crucial moments merely by their attempts to do what is right. We should never underestimate what we can do, even if it is imperfect. God blesses our efforts done in faith. "Do not grow weary in well doing, for in due season we shall reap, if we do not faint."
