okay so I saw you rb a serpent society post (and while ik it would've been a better MCU story than civil war), but I don't really know anything about it except that it actually IS a Steve Story™️ not a story with Steve in it...

can you shed some light pls? what is the serpent society storyline

oh mannnn Serpent Society haunts me. incase anyone else doesn't know what Serpent Society is/was going to be lemme give a little rundown: it was the original title for the third cap movie when it was first announced, here's proof:

and basically it was going to be about.. you know.. Captain America, because originally it was an actual Captain America movie, not just Avengers 3 or Iron Man 4, which it turned into when they decided to write Civil War instead 😒

and they'll try to tell you it was just a fake name to throw people off the scent of Civil War but THAT'S A LIE because there's a nefarious Paragraph™ out there that they started writing before they were told to write the Civil War plot instead (I can't remember whether M&M said it was Kevin Feige or Whedon who stuck his head around the door and said "what about Civil War"? but I'm pretty sure it was one of them) and we all know one of the main reasons they decided to change it to the Civil War plot was because they wanted a big Superhero Vs Superhero movie to rival DC's Batman Vs Superman because creativity is bankrupt within the mcu

and essentially Serpent Society was going to be about the Cap Quartet, hunting down Bucky, taking out Hydra, but that's all we know. and we can theorize also that it would have included the comic book team of bad guys called - you guessed it - the Serpent Society! (all the bad guys in that group have snake-themed names and the leader is a guy called King Cobra, but that's the extent of my knowledge)

she could have been the best movie in the cap trilogy. she could have given us the found family content we crave. she could have changed the course of the mcu for good. but she's gone now and i mourn her

also i’m pretty sure they were gonna give us a juicy flashback to steve’s childhood and his momma sarah but they decided instead to give that to tony when they changed it to civil war, but that's just me theorizing in my bitter little brain
