GOT - there will be spoilers
-
Hopefully the final episode will be a great follow up to this one, in its favour is that it has the same Director.<br><br>
Predictions for next week?<br>
Cersie to unleash Wildfire, killing most including Tommin?<br><br>
Walder Frey to get his just deserts, Arya to dish it out? <br>
Or the Lannisters lead by Jamie do it themselves?<br><br>
WW and the Night King attack Castle Black, bring down the wall?<br><br>
Dany and Yara in bed together with Tyrion listening in hiding at the end of the bed.<br><br>
Anything else? -

<p>I haven't seen any of this latest series, but I'm not sure LF's in love with Sansa.</p>

<p>Go back to when he threw Lysa Arren out the moonhole. He said, "I've only ever loved one woman - your sister".</p>

<p>LF's got a fair slate of pretty nasty dealings racked up, Baron. I think he's a definite bad guy and given the number of the worst that have departed it seems a reasonable bet that he'll step up in the next seasons.</p> -

<p>Yeah i forgot about him throwing her out the tower. </p>
<p>I dont think he is that bad.. but I wouldnt bet against your prediction of him ramping it up in the evil stakes next season.</p>

<p>It is funny how many of us are so quick to forgive and even like characters like The Hound, Jaime Lannister and even Bron, who all have done some really nasty shit. Yet someone like LF gets continual dislike. I cannot figure out how the author and writers have managed it as realistically his acts havent been that bad... just really self serving. Like everyone else he used the tools he had to get ahead in a brutal world.</p> -

It was LF that created this whole 'Game'<br>
Excluding the WW situation, everything comes back to LF. <br><br>
Convinced Lysa to murder her husband knowing Robert would ask Ned to be his new Hand.<br>
Betrayed Ned Stark.<br>
Murdered Lysa (not a bad thing as she was cray cray)<br>
Gave Sansa to Ramsey ( somehow had no idea how psychotic he was)<br><br>
LF doesn't wants to sit on the Throne, he just wants someone else to that he can manipulate, the way he does with Robyn (Robert in the books) -

<p>maybe he isn't in love with her (but IMO he gives that impression - more so the current trailer) but he sees the benefit of having a Stark at his side, which will all but give him Winterfell and the Ayre, a position of power that can see him close to whoever sits in the Iron Throne.</p> -

<p>He betrayed the dude who had taken his true love away from him... all because Ned was upper class. Again all part of game. Ned got his wife because of the game... he lost his life because of it. </p>

<p>I am fully aware of how they 'come across' I am just interested in how the writers have manipulated us into liking some evil bastards and disliking others.</p>
<p>Even to the point where we all dislike the High Sparrow for wanting to bring the great houses down.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Maybe because when we imagine ourselves in these 'worlds' we see ourselves as kick ass warriors, or nobles. We don't see ourselves as peasants or middle class guys trying to struggle and get ahead. Therefore when a peasant or middle class person does things to bring the nobles down.. we rankle against it like it is an attack.</p>
<p>Chances are if you actually lived in Westeros you would be hoping like hell that LF wins and the big houses all fight each other to oblivion and irrelevance. The Sparrow not so much.. who would want to really live a in a theocracy? </p> -

<p>Personality goes a long way. Little Finger has none. As I ( and others ) have said it's gonna be less entertaining knowing Ramsay isn't plotting some sick, depraved shit.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Little Finger or High Sparrow could get a spear in the guts next episode and I wouldn't give two fucks. They're not interesting enough to warrant wishing a nasty death like Ramsay, Walder Frey or Euron ( here's hoping )</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If you want to see the peasants or middle class guys do well I suggest you watch a bit of Parliament TV for more realism.</p> -

<p>Personality? I think he has plenty of it! </p>
<p>He did start off the whole war.... manipulate armies all over the map, marry people off, plot revenge for slights, basically murder his rivals and he has done more than basically every other character except Daenerys.</p>
<p>The Hound has done what exactly? Wander around the country pretty aimlessly? Get his ass kicked by a female warrior, then become mates with a monk? All whilst being pretty bland and saying fuck all? Sure he has a personality,and I like his character... but he has done plenty of evil stuff in his time and has accomplished SFA . But hey.. I like most others like his character. I am just trying to fighure out why.. Is it really just as simple as the fact that he uses a sword or axe instead of his brain to get ahead?</p> -

<p>The Hound was just another big Sword wielding muscle head until he got stuck with Ayra which humanised him and made his character heaps more relatable. Only reason he lost to Brienne was cos he was badly wounded from other fights previously. People tend to like strong silent types afterall.....</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I guess with Little finger he just has the dodgy car salesman demeanour about him. I agree he is a very shrewd one but I have a feeling he isn't to be trusted ( well "trust" being a relative term in Westeros )</p>
