I dream of Moody/ Kingsley

Beth, aging Voldemort:
>> I would have to agree, I always figured Lord thingy to be around 
middle-aged. Lessee, he graduated at age 17ish, and then the Great 
Wizard War went on for 14 years, so that would make him around 31 
when he was vanquished. But then when he was resurrected in GoF, 
this  is where the problem may lie. Was he resurrected back into his 
31-year old body (which, I think, would be logical), or did he come 
back in a properly aged body, which would be closer to 45 years old?

EH? I don't want to go too on-topic, so I'll kick off by saying that 
I think Ian McKellen is the perfect age for Voldemort. The action of 
the diary flashback in CoS takes place in 1942-3, and Riddle (born 
in 1927) leaves Hogwarts in 1945 and disappears for some time. He 
attempts to AK Harry in 1981, when he would be in his mid-fifties, 
and therefore would be pushing seventy by GoF (it's all on the 
Lexicon). Christopher Lee is far too old for Karakoff, though.

On a completely random note - could we see Christian Bale as Barty 
junior?
