I think the distinction to be made is whether that assumption is coming from the filmmaker or from the fans. As we all know, fans can run wild with...well, just about anything; make an otherwise cardboard villain and just hint at his motivations, and suddenly you've got horrifying levels of woobification. But that doesn't mean the movie got it wrong.

Definitely a distinction worth making. And I was trying to keep my thoughts focussed on source material rather than fandom because - well, fandom. They'll woobify Ramsay Bolton for shiggles - it's a whole different paradigm.

But I do think you get it in movies and TV shows too. Where they try to add a layer of complexity by offering a point of sympathy with the villain, but then end up destabilizing their protaganists' moral compass by letting the original designated antagonist have too much of their own say. Fine in a story that was always intended to take the antagonist's side. But more irritating where it ends up throwing everything into a distracting moral relativism.
