Volde-riggor-mort-is

Voldemort has to go down as history’s most incompetent fictional bad-guy. Worse even than the two crooks from Home Alone and Home Alone 2. Voldemort has one singular goal in life: to kill Harry Potter. Why? Because of something Harry had no control over when he was a newborn baby. The dude comes back from the dead and raises a virtual army to kill Harry, and he still can’t get it done. Bear in mind that he’s the world most powerful wizard and Harry’s a meddling teenager. You think that after the third or fourth failed attempt he’d wise up and move on to something new, but no: it’s always #1 on his to-do list. There’s even posters he prints off saying, “Harry Potter: #1 Most Wanted.”
Still, Voldemort is a man who can get things done. Dumbledore gets iced on his say-so. His minions go to extreme length to bring him back to life, even though they’re deathly afraid of him and they’re better off with him in the cold, cold ground. Killing Harry, though? Hard to do.
In the seventh movie, Voldemort kills a muggle studies teacher, just ‘cause he’s the kind of guy who can’t leave high school in the past. If he’d been taught in a muggle school, it would have been Columbine all over again. Try going back to your old high school and start kicking over trash cans, and see how quickly the cops arrest you. Voldemort gets a free ride, though, because: no nose. Obviously, though, he can kill. Just not Harry. He even has Harry dead in his sights, but Harry, half-blinded and concussed, still kicks his overly-veiny ass. This leads Voldemort on a quest for the world’s most powerful magic wand.
Okay: so bullets are a real thing in Voldemort’s world. He’s strictly anti-muggle, but still: bullets. Harry Potter is not invincible. He’s constantly bruised and bloodied and near-death. Instead of using, say: the world’s most powerful magic wand, he could try instead: the world’s most affordable handgun. No one’s going to look at him differently if he takes that route. He’s not going to be ostracized by his evil minions for using a muggle gun, but it’s like he’s fighting Superman with bullets when there’s kryptonite laying around everywhere. Or straight-up go fight him man-to-man. Quit being such a pussy and throw-down. What’s the worst that can happen? He dies again? He’s got like these thing-a-ma-bob-doo-hickies that keep him alive and evil, and noseless.
But the dude takes over the entire Ministry of Magic and turns them all into Nazis like it ain’t no thing, and even then he can’t get it done. Harry runs through the entire breadth of the Ministry with like forty people chasing him, and he still gets away. The kid’s fucking untouchable. There’s even a giant snake-trap at one point, which obviously doesn’t work because Harry took down an even bigger snake with petrifying-eyes, so why would a much smaller snake work? It’s like Voldemort’s a reject from C.O.B.R.A. with his lack of original ideas. Then two of his best goons get taken down, even after they have the drop on Harry. He honestly should work for G.I. Joe. Seriously: his goons nearly kill a whole group of fake Harrys, but they can’t get the real one. They even know where he lives, because they’re staking it out, and then they attack the wedding too. Still: nothing. They can shoot themselves like cannonballs through walls, but they can’t do that to a dude with bad eyesight that’s looking the other way.
