You know, what with all the things we've discussed, I think Lord Voldemort's failure to live up to most of that makes him a little...underwhelming. As one of the most famous fantasy villains of all time, Tom Riddle is not far off from a case study in sub par villain writing, what with his psychopathic man babying and inability to defeat a bunch of teenagers, whilst in the end dying to a legal argument.
The Tom Riddle we got glimpses of in CoS and HBP was way more intimidating than present-Voldemort. Prettyboy magical serial killer beats Skeletor knockoff anyday.
