So did Arya keep Littlefinger's face so she can get to Cersei to kill her?

No doubt she's keeping it.

This is kind of what I was envisioning too after last night's finale.

- Although I think it'd be cool if they named the baby, Ned (if it's a boy)

I think one reason why Jon doesn't want to be the King is because he views himself as someone who doesn't deserve it mainly because he thinks he's a bastard.

His real father never wanted to be a king either, He want to be with the people and play his harp.

I'm probably wrong but I thought that was more about him not wanting to be a warrior. I don't think he had a issue with being King. He wanted to kick his crazy dad off the throne and rule the kingdom. I mean, Rhaegor thought he was the savior of mankind but realized he wasn't and decided if he wasn't than it must be one of his kids. That's not the thinking of a modest, I don't want to rule type of guy.
But like I said I'm probably wrong and got all that confused with something else.

True, but he's not going to suddenly think "I'm special" when he finds out the truth of his parentage. He still has survivor guilt too.

Things I'm looking forward to next season:
- Spoiler: show
- Arya trying to finish her list
Clegane bowl
Seeing whether or not Tormund survived
Jaime's story
More Night King

so i must not have been paying attention to the scene where cersei threatened Jaime... He walked away, but didn't she have the mountain go after him? What happened there? He goes north to help, right?

Yup.

I just want to say that Lena Heady did spectacular work this season.

She was good. I think the dude who plays Jamie is a great actor too. Solid stuff from Kit Harrington as well, given the confines of his character.

I thought it was a good finish to the season, especially compared to the previous episode. The big meeting scene and the destruction of the wall were highlights for me. Better use of CGI too.
I was not expecting Littlefinger to be the big death; I thought he would have made it until the next year.

It's almost like they didn't think it through.
