Oh I completely agree with you. I thought the vast majority of people liked Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker? Was certainly a definite improvement on Tobey and much closer to the comic book version than he was.
Also Emma Stone as Gwen was fantastic. If I had to pick a standout moment from any of the first 5 Spider-Man films, I'd go for the clock tower scene at the end of the second film with Peter/Gwen/Goblin.
