I haven't watched Snow White and the Huntsman yet, but I want too. But I remember the quote: "Lips red as blood, hair black as night, bright me your heart, my dear, dear Snow White." From seeing the trailer of the movie more than ten times on TV when it was about to be released. And just by reading the text I quoted above ^^ the 'was hired to take Snow White's heart.' part made the quote pop up in my mind.

I don't know, really, but it could explain Giant Armor and Weiss Schnee's fight.

Then again, why keep/let loose a huge guy with armor and have someone battle it? Okay, so 50% of my mind thinks the Schnee family resisdents in that castle and Giant Armor suddenly breaks in and Weiss is sent to battle him. (Being somewhat a test for her.) The 25% is that Weiss is a royal entertainer and Giant Armor was created by someone from White Castle's doing, 25% Giant Armor is a test for Weiss's capabilities.

Then again, I'm not smart. My personal guess is that the Armour Giant was part of the castle's defences (basically one of the Mecha Men in size grande) that apparently 'went rogue' and attaked Weiss for no reason when she was wandering the castle alone. Of course, this was actually an assassination attempt by the Big Bad, who had reprogrammed it to see Weiss as a threat to be destroyed.

My main proof for this is that, in the flashback, Weiss seems genuinely shocked by the giant's attack. This wasn't a threat that she had gone to find but something that ought to be on her side that's suddenly turned on her.

A secondary line of proof is that, at first, Weiss was clearly only attempting to disable it; that's why she held back at first, only using her higher-level powers when it became plain that the Giant was absolutely out to kill her.
