I agree that a CGI Voldemort could look really cool. I had read on 
the Leaky Cauldron on June 29 that Ralph Fiennes was one of the 
actors negotiating to play Voldemort. Personally, he seems to nice. 
Granted he was evil in Scheindler's List but Not how I picture 
Voldemort. I too think it would be hard to find a real life person 
who could look the part. Guess we wait and see.
