Fans — or at least, social media users — have been mildly obsessing over this ridiculous expositional line since the “Madame Web” trailer dropped in late 2023, to the point where one person on X (formerly known as Twitter) compared it to a similarly viral quote uttered by Gal Gadot in the “Death on the Nile” trailer. “Is ‘He was in the Amazon with my mom when she was researching spiders just before she died’ the new ‘And enough champagne … to fill the Nile!'” @mycolefillups asked, only for @LouisPeitzman to report the terrible news: “No because it’s not even in the movie!” This announcement shocked the original poster, who simply responded, “WHAT?!!?!!”
In their review, user @Ethan_Anderton included this information after dunking on the movie. “#MadameWeb is downright awful,” they announced. “Boring, stupid, and just plain silly. It’s ‘Morbius’-level bad, and proves Sony has no idea what to do with the extensive gallery of Spider-Man characters. The infamous Amazon line isn’t even in the movie. Total waste.”
Elsewhere, @ZoeRoseBryant asked an important question, referencing some recent press involving star Dakota Johnson: “[D]o you think this interview was the reason they cut ‘[H]e was in the [A]mazon with my mom when she was researching spiders just before she died’ out of ‘Madame Web?'” Wait, which interview was that?
