I agree with you on the villains, they've always been the major weakness in the franchise - even in the comic books. Spiderman doesn't have a particularly good rogues gallery. It's pretty terrible actually. But he's a more sympathetic hero and easier to relate to than almost any other - add the fact that he's a fun character with entertaining (yet still limited) powers and it makes up for an awful lot.
There's only been one bad Spiderman film in my mind - Spiderman 3 (which was awful). The Amazing Spiderman 2 had its problems, but I think it's a bit underrated given that there's a lot about the movie that was done really well. Great acting and chemistry between the performers, and some pretty good action scenes. The script was just disjointed and Electro kinda sucked.
The actor for Harry Osborne seems like he could make a great villain though, if he was allowed to carry the antagonist role by himself in a future movie. Too bad it looks like they're running with the Sinister Six instead.
