    Just because it ended up being the case doesn't change that it was completely far-fetched. All you had to do was look at precedent. All of the previous hints were extremely obvious and straightforward. Dark Knight = Batman (the Dark Knight). Red Mage = Scarlet Witch. Gun user = 007. And I believe there was even a hint with Naruto when NIN was going to be released.

    Sam Raimi was incredibly far-fetched and odd. Spiderman is a HUGE intellectual property spanning many forms of media. Sam Raimi was a minor fraction compared to the whole. Going by past precedent, it should have been more obvious. Thus Spiderman, who got his powers from being attacked, screamed Blue Mage. Hell, even Dancer was much more plausible than Samurai.

    Yes, you can feel good that you were correct. But that doesn't change the fact that it was the least likely option based on past precedent.
    To be fair: Batman was related to Dark Knight because the film in cinema, not because Batman is using a sword or getting his ability from magic...
    Spiderman is similar with the upcoming Samurai theme in the comics in japan!
    Same as with 007 and his gun moving pose he added the hint with the "3 original films" that resulted in Sam Raimi.
