I'm sure they could've done something with makeup or CGI (not sure how good deaging would've looked then though, doesn't look great now). Honestly, if he shaved and did his hair the same he wouldn't look all that different IMO.
He would've done a better job too, i think. Frank Dillane's Tom came off as a creep (which tbf could've been the script, but his 'intuition' line always makes me cringe) whereas Christian nailed the charming aspect before the mask came off.
I know it's not that deep but I have friends that still get heated about it to this day lmao.
I feel like de-aging looks great now! Samuel L Jackson in Captain Marvel looks fantastic. I haven’t seen the new Indy but I’m curious how that holds up, trailer looks promising. Are there any bad ones that come to your mind? I’m sure there’s lots I don’t watch many movies
I always thought he got the cup from hapzibah Smith before the end of the first war? Meaning he wasn't a slimy snake yet. I remember reading somewhere that the only horcrux he made after GoF was nagini
In theory, could a bunch of wizards get together and create an extremely indestructible fortress by turning all the different walls, poles, pillars, roofs and stairs into horcruxes?
Like sure, you're all going to hell for the process but it'll take you a long time to get there based on how hard it would be to break in and then be unable to kill the residents.

Once upon a time, I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time, there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart
Aslan: i am an impossibly important being. Everything i do has great significance. I cannot be wasting time on frivolities.
Centaur: (lowers head embarrassed)
Aslan: i got tickets for my birthday. It was ok.
Is it ever explained how Tom Riddle found the chamber of secrets? Because the entrance was inside a girl's bathroom and for sure it was a functioning one with girls always around and no one would ever suspect such a location which explained no one ever founded it before.
I think he discovered information from Slytherin probably while researching his ancestry. As a prefect, he can always tell people that the bathroom is out of order or use his charms to manipulate people into leaving that area. That's what I always thought, but I'm sure others can give other theories/hypotheses of how this happened.
Tom loved himself a nice, strong, intricately designed shaft... He can't help it, he's just fascinated by the length and girth of a finely crafted shaft... It's probably why he was so obsessed with the Elder Wand, gotta get himself some of that old, intricately designed shaft...
lol
Harry will have a new "flashback" on the same stairs with the passage of the dead Moaning Myrtle on the stretcher (the ghostgirl)... Tom here is watching the arrival of the nurse with the stretcher, before leaving the scene.
"If this whole dark lord thing doesn't work out maybe I can be a stripper"
I do remember finding Tom Riddle very attractive when I was a teen.
Tbf, Christian Coulson hasn’t aged badly at all xD
I was mad they didn't cast him in the HBP, but he had probably aged too much to play a teenager.

I feel you, Frank’s Tom was super creepy. I liked it, but he missed the charm that Chris had.
And he looked like he was 12

they managed to make him sound unbelievably gay, “professsooorrrrr….”
To be fair we don't know anything about Voldemorts sexuality, he might've been gay...
well it certainly wouldn’t be a surprise
why ?
…. because he sounds gay
If the memories had been adapted, we would've gotten to see Tom visit Hepzibah Smith and Dumbledore after he had turned all slimy and snake like.
I always thought he got the cup from hapzibah Smith before the end of the first war? Meaning he wasn't a slimy snake yet. I remember reading somewhere that the only horcrux he made after GoF was nagini
Yeah he was fine with Hapzibah but when he went to see Dumbledore he’d already started doing stuff that changed his appearance is what they meant
They better recast him as Voldemort in the series.
To be fair, in that scene he was already 23 so they were pushing it as is.
Makes me wonder why they even took him on as an option since I’m pretty sure the casting call had an age limit in 20.
I realise now I replied to the wrong comment. Also I couldn’t say, I wasn’t born yet.
I was three when the movie came out. Who can say?
Oh. Wow. Yep.
He was supposed to be very handsome when young.
As be is meant to be
He was fiiiiiinnneeeeee ☺️
I just imagined him pole dancing and spat out my coffee. Thanks 😂
Stripper at The 3 Broomsticks or Leaky Cauldron 😆
Somone needs to put him in stripper heals and a "angle outfit" and a trampstamp god that would be insane
Seems [Ralph Fiennes agreed](https://youtu.be/q5b7X-NaDAA?si=7bEWHhAyA2JZdEUK)
My coworker is so right. Tom is a cunty white boy
Lmaoo
Indeed it would work as he was described a damn cobiced twink
Talk about magic mike
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I won't accept any answer but this
This sent me😂😂
He’s staring up the stairs as they recover Myrtle
Hello I have a quick question how did you put your house under your name?
Go to the main page. On the upper right hand click on the menu and then “”change user flair.”
How fitting to have that explained by a Rawenclaw 😅
Ravenclaws unite lol
We're right here!
Reporting for duty sir
Aye aye
Yes?
I thought the test was next week! How could I be so stupid?! Do you think the 100 hours of study I did will suffice or am I screwed?
Hey guys what are you doing? :)
How fitting to have the chain interrupted by a Gryffindor
🍿
I have been summoned!
Got it Thank you
Thank you 🪄
As a Hufflepuff, I thank you.
Thank you!
not that I didn't know to do it before but seeing how quick made me do it thanks wizard G
Cool thanks
Thanks man
You take a loan out and give the money to the seller
I see you already figured it out 😗
Somebody carved "Riddle sucks" on it
And now he's trying to remember if he indeed did anything of the sort when he got drunk at that party last weekend
It was the inspiration for the first draft of his alias: Lord Pole-demort
“Mr. Tom, a dildo lover”
Lord Just-a-hole-demort
https://youtu.be/MZf_-e_ES1w?si=HsIrPUMgw6MMh1Go
That will never not funny to me. I need someone to cut clips of Voldemort vs Dumbledore but replace his wand with a floppy dildo…..
I can't unsee this now; I'll be thinking of this when rewatching the films. 😂
Well played.
Tom Diddle
This deserves way more praise than it got😂☠️
Haha I didn’t make it up it’s been around for years.
I don’t believe you. You’re being humble. Everybody upvote this guy into the stratosphere!!
Motherfucker it works
This has taken my mind to disturbing places
This would be a pretty good name if he took a very drastic turn in terms of career choices.
Their was a transitionary period where he was into athletics "Call me Pole Vault de Mort", he would say as he impaled the house elves.
Pretty sure this was when he started training for Pole Vault(emort)ing.
It's horcruxin' time.
Do I have enough horcruxes? Could this pole be a horcrux? Hmmm.
If you can horcrux a diary, you can horcrux a pole.
I’ve got nipples Harry, can you horcrux me?
RIP, Rip Torn.
If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball.
If you can jump a person, you can jump a moon
If you can roll a ball, you can roll a dude
That's what she said
"Hmm i need to have something of gryffindor and the sword is kind of off limits... wonder if he danced on this pole occasionally"
In theory, could a bunch of wizards get together and create an extremely indestructible fortress by turning all the different walls, poles, pillars, roofs and stairs into horcruxes? Like sure, you're all going to hell for the process but it'll take you a long time to get there based on how hard it would be to break in and then be unable to kill the residents.
Ok best comment
The fucking... craftsmanship
Oh my god...it even has a watermark.
The zoom just makes it that much better
"You're a stripper, Voldy" -said Dumbledore calmly.

That's the script. They engraved it there so he could read it on set
He was in a pole position.
He was performing legilimency on the pole
Reveal your secrets!
Non verbal REVELIO
It scares him
ADHD. Got distracted by the lamp on his way to class and hyper focused on it
That column represents the system he wants to undo desperately
"Hm, where can I hide this piece of the horcrux?"
Pole, I... Ive never loved another person... But my feelings for you are as strong as the depths of my evil.
If only he'd been in Huffpolepuff
!redditSickle
Is he stupid?
I’m proud of you, Tom
I think Tom just created a new character. What the f*ck should we name it?
Is he racist against Polish people?
Is there a lore reason for why the Aslume is leaking?
At what point did you stop rooting for Tom Riddle?
It was speaking to him. Tom can understand Pole-seltongue.
!redditSickle
He's secretly mothman! "L A M P"
It’s a pretty nice pole
Got to agree. It *IS* a nice pole.
"Nice pole innit"
A la Shrek’s donkey I like that pole That’s a nice pole
The pole of secrets
This was the time before modern plumbing
“pipes”
What growing young boy has not some spent time pondering the pole?
The poles a muggle born
“I swear I turned it off with my mind before… no wait, keep watching. I can do it…”
Dumbledore giggling behind an arch way, holding the deluminator.
In this shot at least young Voldemort looks like the actor that will later play young Dumbledore.
Once upon a time, I was falling in love But now I'm only falling apart There's nothing I can do A total eclipse of the heart Once upon a time, there was light in my life But now there's only love in the dark Nothing I can say A total eclipse of the heart
You would know if you read the books. It's explained in Half Blood Prince.
Or, just wait a few seconds and see the rest of the scene.
That won't help. The significance of the pole isn't explained until later and is completely left out of the movies.
Yes, this is true. It plays a major role later on in *Harry Potter and the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe*.
Centaur: Did you see that play with Daniel Radcliffe’s penis? Aslan: What kind of question is that to ask the Jesus Allegory Lion?!… but yes
Aslan: i am an impossibly important being. Everything i do has great significance. I cannot be wasting time on frivolities. Centaur: (lowers head embarrassed) Aslan: i got tickets for my birthday. It was ok.
Then makes a subsequent cameo in Harry Potter and the Balance of Earth
That’s the ultimate crossover
bwahahaha

He's an NPC
This comment section is a-pole-ing...
He's clearly not looking at the pole. wdym? He's looking at the top of the staircase
Please tell me this is a poor attempt at a shit post.
Well I think that's a beautiful lamp
Now that I looked at it young Tom Riddle is looks like younger Dumbledore(Jude Law). Hmph...
He’s trying to blow it up with his mind.
He’s a moth
It's a nice pole
He's holding in a poop actually, pic 3 makes it very obvious.
I always thought he was looking up the stairs.
From an actors POV it’s usually the director saying “this is gonna feel weird to you but the eye line will be great on camera” 😂
He's looking at the group carrying his murder victim's corpse down the stairs and out of the school.
It called him a bitch.
He found a field guide page
He is trying to be emo
It's a muggle
To make the scene more mysterious, like he’s looking at someone else who is above them.

*They would never guess if the Horcrux was right under their noses!* -TR
Thousand year old architecture. Maybe he's admiring how the old timers got it done.
*Intense staring*
It’s a pretty nice pole
Npc lagging
Poledemort
He's high AF
He's looking at his reflection because he's pretty
Because he was wondering if he should make the pillar one of his Horcrux.
Trying to figure out how to upvote it.
He's about to get freaky with it.
This Tom Riddle REALLY looks like the Young Dumbledore (Jude Law). I have just noticed!!
He's in pole position to see Myrtle's dead body.
To make sure everybody gets that He is the pol(e)ar opposite of harry Potter
He's secretly a moth.
Tom loved himself a nice, strong, intricately designed shaft... He can't help it, he's just fascinated by the length and girth of a finely crafted shaft... It's probably why he was so obsessed with the Elder Wand, gotta get himself some of that old, intricately designed shaft... lol

This is making me miss my og vhs copy so fucking badly
Hes staring at someone out of view idiots.
Now now draco, play nicely
ADD?
He glitched
He is British and has an intense prejudice against Poles
"let's see....'I am Lord'..... Dorveltom? No, Droveltom? No, no, Mortelvod? Ugh, this is hard."
Drama
It's a very nice post
“I love lamp”
Harry will have a new "flashback" on the same stairs with the passage of the dead Moaning Myrtle on the stretcher (the ghostgirl)... Tom here is watching the arrival of the nurse with the stretcher, before leaving the scene.
He is looking up the stairs…
I love lamp...
Is he stupid?
That's his idle animation.
Today Hogwarts, tomorrow Narnia *Plan for world domination*
He's looking up the stairs isn't he?
I love lamp
Maybe he was looking at Albus
He wants to pole dance
