LOTR and Harry Potter both have classic Christ characters. LOTR very purposefully since Tolkien was super religious. I was going to say that GOT doesn't have that character, but I suppose Jon Snow has started to follow that kind of storyline, even if I wish they hadn't gone that route.

Jon Snow a Christ character? No way...Snow was born out of wedlock and raised from the dead...

This whole debate comes down to whether you think Daniel Radcliffe or Elijah Wood is hotter.
