They weren't complete trash. Well, the third one was. Toby was good at the time, but after seeing Garfield, it's clear that toby was no spiderman. He didn't fit the part at all compared to Garfield and anyone that claims otherwise is no real fan of the source material and really has no idea what they're talking about. Mary Jane looked the part, sounded the part and but rarely acted the part, but they also gave no substance to her and they tried to combine the dynamics of gwen and mary jane into one character. They failed on that front miserably. They also ruined Gwen in the third movie. The villains were great except for the third movie, venom itself as a villain was great but they ruined it with Eddie.
Honestly, the only thing worth salvaging from the original spiderman series is norman osborn, doctor octopus and J. Jonah Jameson.
When they first came out, there wasn't anything to really compare it to but now with a new series developing it's really easy to see that the previous installments weren't as good as the new ones. The sand man and the second goblin were terrible.
Most people have never and will never read the comics.
