Like Avatar and Black Wolf in the movie Wizards. Avatar pulled out a
gun and shot Black Wolf, when everyone thought they would duel it out
magically. What WOULD Voldemort do if Harry pulled out a gun and blew
his head off? A trigger can be pulled faster then one can say a spell...
I think if JKR pulled that stunt in the books, Ralph Bakshi would sue
her and her fans would gang up on her and silly string her till she
resembles a rainbow haystack.
If Volde falls off a cliff, then Disney might sue.. Last minute
'conversion to good' would be too Darth Vader'ish.
Its going to be near impossible to find a way to kill Voldemort off and
be original, you know...
