I'm surprised it took me this long to see itm but the Evil Queen from Snow White(Especially the Revenna version) and Cersei Lannister have much in common. They are both vain, selfish, cruel, greedy and envy younger women. As a girl, Cersei was told she would be overthrown by a "Younger and more beautiful Queen". Does this not sound like the evil queen being told her stepdaughter was fairer then her?

Jamie also has a role in this. Jamie has parralels to the Magic Mirror. The Queen finds comfort in being told she is the fairest of them all, Cersei finds comfort in having sex with Jamie because she sees some of herself in him, and what do we see when we look into mirrors? We see ourselves.

This ultimatly raises this issue. This "Younger and more beautiful queen" is obviously a parralel to Snow White(Especially the Snow White and the Huntsmen version). But who is she? Most people thought Margeary was the younger, more beautiful queen, but with her death, she can't be. This leaves two other options. Daenarys and Sansa. Daenarys might seem the most obvious with her on her way to besiege King's Landing, and overthrew Cersei she might. But Game of Thrones is known for it's twists and turns. And nearly every incarnation of Snow White involves her being mistreated by her stepmother. And Sansa, durring her time as a prisoner was treated with much malice and cruelty by Cersei. And in Snow White and the Huntsmen, I felt a strong sense of justice when Revenna was finally defeated by her Stepdaughter, and even the Huntsmen got his justice in the sequel.

Ultimatly this could make Jon represent the Huntsmen. But who do think would be the better person to defeat Cersei? Daenarys or Sansa? Or perhaps both will play important roles in her downfall.
