The "raindrops keep falling on my head" sequence from the second film... really just any of the music sequences - Worked really well, except for in 3.

The fact that MJ always got into trouble (funny, considering that Peter wanted to protect her by not being with her, despite the fact he always saves her anyways), - Yes, because the reboot didn't do the same thing with Gwen.

Green Goblin having that weapon out of nowhere and Spidey turns the tables because of it. Which weapon? If you're talking about the glider at the end, it didn't come out of nowhere, it was circling the location. And Spidey turning the table because of it was for the better, since it means Norman's blood isn't on his hands.

The first two are really good. They mixed action, drama, and humor (albeit of the campy Raimi variety) really well. The reboot, meanwhile, took itself seriously. Not necessarily a bad thing, but when your villain is a giant lizard man, you have a problem.
