i watched the bone collector last night and remembered starfall's fictional beta thread. cuz the main characters seemed like super blatant LIE & ESI duals to me. denzel's character LIE, jolie's character ESI.

Jane Eyre and Mr Rochester ? I think Te-Fi duality, but not sure if Gamma.

Mr and Mrs Smith struck me as a quirky take on LIE-ESI duality. Pitt playing the LIE and Jolie playing the ESI.
Jay Gatsby Gamma SF. Dunno about Daisy, probably Beta NF.
Gatsby is one of the most obvious examples of an EIE in literature, IMO.
why so?Quote:

That to me encapsulates EIE as a type perfectly.
Even this bit in the book brought to mind EXFj:
If you're curious what I typed others in the book:Quote:

Nick Carraway - IEI
Daisy Buchanan - SLE
Tom Buchanan - LSI
Stringer Bell from the Wire is a dead on LIE
but yeah, this is kind of hard. Gamma's arent as abundant in fictional works.
Whats Django? ESI?

I'm not familiar with a single one of those characters but lists are nice
Modern movies are abundant with Gamma characters, or so it seems to me. Just off the top of my head:
Kate Winslet's character from 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind' is a SEE, and so are Penny from 'The Big Bang Theory' and Joan (Christina Hendricks) from 'Mad Men.' Leonard from TBBT is an ILI. Mike and Rachel from 'Suits' seem to be LIE and ESI.
Penny is ESE, as is her actress. Not sure about Leonard, but not ILI.
Rachel from Suits seems aristocratic, so that'd scratch out ESI.
The narrator could be IEI. I have a hard time seeing any Fe "community values" in Gatsby. Only materialism coupled with some Fi idealism -- obsession with Daisy.Quote:

However, most of her reactions seem consistent with SEE.Quote:

I think Walter White is a Gamma NT. On the Breaking Bad thread, a lot of people typed him as Delta ST, but I think that's wrong. He shows clear disregard for his body, wanting to roll over and die instead accepting the chemo, and also in driving his car into opposing traffic. That shows weak Si, imho. Plus, when he says, "we're in the empire business" towards the end of the series...well, I can't think of a more Ni influenced quote.
I'm also inclined to type Jesse as Fi-ESFp, with most of his character's motivation being defined by his "flexible" ethics of relations, where he's in homoerotic love with Walter one minute and spurning him the next. :biggrin:
All in all, I think it's a pretty Gamma show, what with theme being a gradual unified progression (Ni) towards a comeuppance for ethical transgressions (Fi).
'Dexter' is a very Gamma show, too. I haven't seen it but it's a favorite among many ILIs/SEEs I know.
Also Saul (Mandy Patinkin) from 'Homeland' seems to be an ILI.
See i would think Winslet's character would have been SLE, with her abrasive communication style and her obvious issues connecting with others on that typical Fi level.Quote:

Naruto:
Naruto ESFp, Kakashi ILI
Well the explosiveness can come from an 8 that doesn't have their shit together. I'd jump straight to SLE for him if he weren't forecasting all the time. Definitely Se valuing, as he understands well how the shift of power works. Often gets coups started, but doesn't openly lead the charge, more of a puppetmaster.Quote:

I agree with Ichigo as ESI.
Natsu Dragneel from Fairy Tail is a pretty blatant SEE. He values family and loyalty above all, and he'll knock the shit out of the opposition for betraying each other. He's also rather easily forgiving - as is the guild as a whole - befriending previous enemies who have renounced their evildoing ways and joined the guild.
I recall discussions on the WS pinning Nagi Springfield as SEE. He's basically the typical shonen protagonist flying by the seat of his pants and usually coming out victorious. I recall reading somewhere (TVTropes?) that this became an issue for him in Negima because he couldn't just "brute force" the problem this time. @Joy
LIE was tossed around for Negi Springfield; :Si: PoLR fits very well, but he's definitely not :Fe: base. I haven't read the series in a while, though. I recall him being a thoughtful, polite, and incredibly responsible child whose real talent turned out to be the writing/development of spells and who regularly ran himself until he collapsed when working toward a goal.
SEE, maybe, for his friend Kotarou. Same for Asuna.
SEE for Touta from UQ Holder. Typical "I'M GONNA REACH MY DREEEAAAMS OH HEY LET'S BE FRIENDS TOO BAD I'M MAKING YOU ANYWAY" protagonist.
uh...pretty sure he's not weak in Fi...Quote:

@Kill4Me, that's an ILE imo, not an LIE.
if it was an Ni creature, it likes Fe too much for LIE. => EIE
Lucifer Morningstar from the new TV show Lucifer seems LIE.

Kiera Knightley and Steve Carell - Movie: Seeking a friend for the end of the world. Such an great example of ILI and SEE. Attachment 7130
Yep, pretty sure Dr. King Schultz was an ILI myself as well, he and Django seemed to have a good activation relationship going on in that film.Quote:

Now that I think about it, I'd also nominate Ledo from Suisei No Gargantia for an ILI and Amy for a good SEE. I can't quite accurately type Chamber but it had to be a positive one given how it all worked out. Ledo clearly has :Fi: problems yet very strongly expresses it where it matters most. He's a major fan of logic, but it's clear that his internal feelings are his motivating force. Either way, it was clear that the robot didn't resent its master (i.e. it was an overall positive relationship).
Annalise from How to Get Away With Murder seems ENTj to me.
@Anglas @Cuddly McFluffles
Kurosaki Ichigo: ESI-Se
Tensa Zangetsu: ILI-Ni
