[HPFGU-Movie] Naming He-who-must-not-be-named

With all that said, Patrick Stewart comes to my mind.

[from Valerie]
Is that Capt. Luke Picard from Star Trek? If so, yes I can see that. Plus he
looks like an old boss of mine who was inherently evil!

OK...now shoot me if I've totally lost the storyline somewhere...but Tom
Riddle (in COS) was a real "mudblood" who went to Hogwarts in the 50's.
Later he becomes evil, and changes his persona to Lord Voldemort. When Harry
discovers him through the diary, Tom had trapped his young self in the
diary. But he and Lord V. are one and the same, am I right? So why did he
turn so hideous? Can we assume that when he killed Harry's parents he was a
handsome "older" Tom Riddle, then after tangling with Harry, he
disintegrated into the hideous creature that we saw in SS? Then why does he
become a short, grotesque, monster in GOF? Because he lost his parasitic
relationship with Quirrel and that's all that was left?

Taryn:
I believe it's Dumbledore that explains that Tom Riddle worked so much with dark magic and transifugration in his search for power and immortality after he left school that he caused his own physical deformation. But someone correct me if I'm wrong; my books are under a pile of several other things that I don't really have the energy to move at the moment. ^_^;
