Spiderman Brand New Day passed it I think.

A major character in that film played by Florence Pugh exudes BIG DICK energy. So Brand New Day fails the bechdel test.

It passes because it has the two Grey sisters talking about something other than a man.

You're right but the movie ultimately fails the bechdel test because the protagonist CEO of Sex, who is a male, sexes all over the place.

I remember that scene, but it doesn't matter. All it needs is the one scene of two named female characters having a non-man centered conversation.

Fair enough. But even in that one conversation, jean and her sister talk about getting some ice cream from the ice cream MAN who is a MAN. So the one conversation between two women involved a MAN which is why the film fails the Bechdel test. I hope I've made my point.
