Nothing charming about Voldemort ... Ralph Fiennes on the other hand ...

I was thinking the exact same thing RedKat82 lol

i agree with RedKat82. :D

Really? Wizard - or rather - thing that took the lives of countless witches, wizards and muggles alike, charming? I beg to differ.

Very true headline...

I guess he's sort of charming to delusional people like Bellatrix or people who want to ignore just how evil he really is. He's definitely a character you love to hate, but I hate him more than anything. Voldemort is PURE evil. Harry also grew up without parents and with a family who mentally and physically abused him (thanks to Voldemort), but he grew into a caring, heroic individual unlike Voldy.

Before he became Lord Voldemort, Tom Riddle was a very charismatic, charming young man. Until he killed Hepzibah Smith, and disappeared, he was well liked by everyone he met, people even thought he would be Minister one day. Excluding, of course, Dumbledore and maybe Slughorn.

Woops Mugglenet--news repost! This was a news story a while ago :) http://www.mugglenet. com/app/news/full_story/2 765

i'll give them sweeney todd, but voldemort is not charming. !

jkrowling describes him as charming so many times how can u disagree. charming doesnt jus mean good looking or something.

Charming...hmmm - I can see that when he was younger, just a charming little boy. And he makes everyone THINK he's charming - yay for Voldy!

I would say that Tom Riddle was charming. However, Voldemort I always think of as different to Tom Riddle somehow. By the time he is Voldemort, he has completely succumbed to his evil ways and no longer uses the guise of being charming to get what he wants. He has power and his minions now. No need to flatter an old lady like Hepzibah Smith for a pretty cup. Just avada kedavra her straight away instead! No one's gonna argue with him lol and there's no need to cover his tracks anymore.

Tom Riddle.., Voldemort... the same person to me really, only different looks. Of course he's charming, he fooled Slughorn, Hepzibah Smith, The Grey Lady... and probably more people.

Didn't EW already release this list? I remember looking at this exact thing a couple months ago and wikipedia-ing everyone I didn't know. Ohh well, Voldy IS pretty charming.

OMG YOU GUYS NEED TO THINK!!! Of course Voldemort ISN'T Charming now, but BEFORE when he was Teenage Tom Riddle he was DEFFINETLY Charming! In the orphanage scene, he was more like a disconnected, eerie, and downright CREEPY boy.. who knew he was "different". By the time Dumbledore introduced him to another world and he grew up in Hogwarts, he then LEARNED how to be CHARMING to get what he wanted. Not to mention he was described as being handsome, and Frank Dillane played him PERFECTLY. forget about Slughorn, look at ALL the Women Tom Riddle was able to entice, persuade and succum to, because of his personality and is "innocent boy" behavior.. He had a split-personality.. he was more Manipulatively charming than completely EVIL in his teenage years. But after he got denied a job at DADA by Dumbledore, and he vanished for a while, he became LORD VOLDEMORT: An EVIL, Controlling, Murderous, and racist. He's always been racist. so I HAVE to agree with the_opaleye.. that was Spot ON! Tom Riddle was charming, Lord Voldemort wasn't.

I SOOOOO have to argue for Alan Rickman's portrayal of Hans Gruber in Die Hard. Perrrrrfect.

Compared to Ralph Fiennes, no one's charming - including Voldemort/Tom Riddle.

He was charming as a kid and a little as a teenager, but now nothing is charming about him..

@mandie he wasnt charming as a child. he was a weirdo. he was only charming as a teenager

Yeah, re-post. I was like, deja vous! I stand by what I said last time: Voldy Voldy Old and Moldy? CHARMING? NO! Maybe as a kid he was maybe a little charming. No, I take that back. Because handsome does not mean charming. Sick, twisted, murder child doesn't mean charming either.

I LOVE DEXTER....it's the most underrated show on tv! It's so AWESOME that Voldy is numero uno!

You know, I kinda agree with this story....

didnt this list already come out?

Yeah, I remember them posting this like a month ago.

EW tends to repeat themselves A LOT! And I think they're also changing their comment boxes so their re-releasing all the old lists.

Voldemort isnt charming--maybe Tom riddle though...:)

AND GUESS WHAT lannaluna??? TOM RIDDLE IS VOLDEMORT!!!
