    Minister Cornelius Oswald Fudge, Order of Merlin (First Class), was the Minister for Magic from 1990-1996. Although considered good natured early in his term, his neglect, ignorance and complete denial of Voldemort’s return led him to go down in history as one of if not the weakest, most ineffective minister of magic in the history of the British ministry.

    He is possibly the most underrated villain of the whole series. We all hate Umbridge who is far more evil (and even joined the Dark Lords side in Deathly Hallows) but Cornelius Fudge was the brains behind the whole scandal and indirectly helped Voldemort gain power from the ministry.

      He wasn't the brains if you read the book properly you'd know it was Umbridge pulling the strings with that. Like the line in both movie and books what fudge doesn't know won't hurt him. He was her tool easily lead also he wrote to albus everyday asking for advice till he turned coat and went into denial, if he was the brains he wouldn't have been asking for help when he was the head of the ministry all the time. He was a weak man not a villain.

    Can people please stop comparing Fudge to Chamberlain there's a huge difference in trying to do what he thought would be the best thing for his traumatized country post WW1 that is not dragging his country into yet another bloodbath (Chamberlain) and just not wanting to do anything about it (Fudge) also by delaying the declaration of war against Germany Chamberlain gave Britain enough time to rearm and to put up a good enough fight (even though in 1940 it was a disaster the allies had the sucess of Dunkirk)

      Him making Umbridge Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher was one of the worst things he did seeing as it was purely out of paranoia that Dumbledore wanted to use the Hogwarts students as an army to take over the Ministry. With Umbridge not letting them use spells and just forcing them to read the textbooks, had the students not formed the DA and taught themselves Fudge and Umbridge would have cost them a year of learning how to defend themselves. During Order of the Phoenix Fudge was making up more conspiracy theories than Xenophilius Lovegood.

    One of my favorite parts of the series is when he is talking to the Muggle PM. When he tells the PM that the Minister of Magic only reveals himself to the PM of the day to maintain the secrecy of the magical world. The PM asks "why hasn't a former prime minster warned me." Fudge laughed and said " Are you going to tell anyone"
    And at the end of the chapter when PM said "You're wizards you can do magic you surely you can. sort out anything" Fudge said "The other side can do magic to."

    Fudge should have been tried for treason and thrown into Azkaban as he endangered both the Wizard and Muggle worlds with what he did. Instead of believing Harry and Dumbledore, he gave Voldemort time to build an army and ran a smear campaign against those who warned him of the coming danger.
    Future Ministers of Magic should study this man and do the exact opposite.
    Incompetent and weak, he should have been removed the moment he gave himself that Order of Merlin First Class. Seriously, who would even do that?
    Having all that power made him paranoid, wanting to placate the Wizarding community.
    Could it be that he may have been under the Imperius curse? Who knows....

    • @c.syde65

      Jackson Lego Productions I believe he would be seen as a hero but then Harry would tell him to go on the run or stay in Hogwarts at all times. Because of him being the reason Harry left Malfoy Manor. Because of him being loyal to harry he would but find it extremely hard to do this. He would come back for the battle of Hogwarts only to be told to leave. He would probably stay being the person he was. He would fight but idk if he would die or not. I have no idea. But that it what I think would happen.

    Fudge is the 2nd weakest Minister for Magic. The 1st one, Hector Fawley, who was Minister for Magic in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, failed to take Grindelwald's threat seriously and as such was replaced by the more proactive Leonard Spencer-Moon. Both Fudge and Fawley are based on ex-Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain.

      Well it should be pretty obvious.
      People that are ghosts are those who were afraid of death,and preferred to stay in this life rather then the after life.
      And apparently once you cross over you can't come back.Seeing as no spirit was ever shown to be able to cross the veil,and come back to the living world.
      So I imagine that should a ghost decide they have had enough and want to cross over,they can go through the veil into the after life.
      But once they have crossed over the decision is final.
      Short of someone using the resurrection stone,they won't be coming back.

    When I read the name of the chapter "Cornelius Fudge", I legitimately believed it to be a type of fudge that was omitted from the film, having watched the film before reading the book.
    Since his house is unknown, I suspect he was either a Hufflepuff or a Slytherin. Since he is clearly not brave enough to be a Gryffindor or clever enough to be a Ravenclaw.

      I think he could have potentially become a spy for Dumbledore and Peter Pettigrew's double agent nature would have been revealed. Not sure how the timeline looks like here, but that's a high possibility.
      In that case, the events of Harry Potter might not have happened, and we'd have got a Neville Longbottom series instead.

    • @utakata772
      @utakata772 6 років тому +2

      Voldemort knew that only the house elf of Regulus - Kreacher - knew about the locket and the location. He would have catched on who destroyed it and then that person would have felt the wrath of Voldemort. Also Regulus was already connected with Voldemort through the dark mark. Running away wouldn't have been a possibility.
      Although if he felt that the locket was destroyed is another thing, but he probably would have checked on it at some point and if Regulus was a spy he would walk (or apparated) to his death if he is summoned.
      Also Regulus thought that Voldemort would be mortal again after destroying it, indicating that he didn't know that Voldemort had 4 other horcruxes at this time.

    What would have happened if Barty Crouch Junior hadn't been given The Dementor's Kiss?
    Barty Crouch Junior is arguably Voldemort's most valuable Death Eater with how clever he was and how expertly he carried out his assigned tasks while also overcoming the unexpected troubles that came about from Peter Pettigrew's negligence. With that in mind, Voldemort would certainly have made an attempt to rescue Barty Crouch Junior from Azkaban prison after the events of The Goblet of Fire so what would the Death Eater's survival have changed for both Voldemort as well as Harry?

    • @carloswilson671
      @carloswilson671 6 років тому +3

      Flaminstarwarsguy851
      Very possibly the reason why Barty Crouch Jr. was kissed. Bellatrix I'm sure was more faithful but admit it she was also crazy. Barty would have been valuable for missions where precision was more important. Were I the Dark Lord both Barty and Bellatrix would have been in my toolbox. Both had their Uses. Lucius was very useful for swaying politicians. Had Voldemort taken care of these three he would have been tougher to bring down. Voldemort being crazy himself didn't take care of his own Death Eaters.

    • @Flaminstarwarsguy851
      @Flaminstarwarsguy851 6 років тому +2

      Exactly. In my opinion, those three (along with Dolohov and Grayback) are Voldemort's most useful Death Eaters.
      Bellatrix for loyalty and dueling ability, Barty for stealth, Lucius for political manipulation, Grayback for intimidation and connections to werewolves, and Dolohov for dueling ability. They are easily his core five and would make him practically impossible to bring down had he kept them protected properly (maybe one Horcrux per Death Eater).

      Flaminstarwarsguy851 In the film version, Dumbledore said about sending him back to Azkaban, but I don’t know if he followed through with that or if he WAS given the Dementor’s Kiss, becoz if he WAS sent to Azkaban, he would’ve showed up in the background of Deathly Hallows.

      It is series of four fanfics about Harry's son James. They were created before the Fantastic Beasts Series. The most famous being James Potter and the Curse of the Gatekeeper which has four You Tube videos. The novel that tell about the wizarding university is James Potter and the Vault of Destinies. I enjoyed them a lot. There is also James Potter and the Hall of Elders Crossing. Each novel is available for download as a PDF file. These novels are about the size of Rollings' books. With the coming if Fantastic Beasts these novels were mostly forgotten, You might, however, enjoy them.

    Fudge was definitely a Slytherin. We know this because he was always listening to Slytherin Alumni. He was shrewd, cunning, ambitious, and very close to the Malfoy family, even giving them a place in his private box during the Quidditch matches. Slytherins tend to stick with other Slytherins, and Fudge always seemed to be around Slytherins a lot.

    Top six reasons Fudge was the worst Minister of Magic ever.
    Number 6: He insisted the continuation of the Tri-Wizard Tournament despite the murder of Barty Crouch.
    Number 5: He hired Umbridge
    Number 4: He refused to clear Sirius Black.
    Number 3: He hired Umbridge.
    Number 2: His bullheaded refusal to admit that Voldemort was back, led to the death of Sirius Black and the Death Eater getting a foothold, allowing them to start the second Wizard War.
    Number 1: *HE HIRED UMBRIDGE!!!*

    • @adriataylor7534
      @adriataylor7534 6 років тому +1

      no. i remember it was either from the book or the movie. i know two were from the movie. one of them being when Slughorn had said "good to see you, wallenbe" or something along that line, referring to Ron. it could have been cause he was at the 3 broom sticks and had gotten drunk. and the other being when James was bullying Snape in his younger years and the crowd was shouting snievelous greasey. Snivelous might have been Snape's nickname. looks at Snape's name Severus.

    • @wariolandgoldpiramid
      @wariolandgoldpiramid 6 років тому +7

      1) Slughorn always butchered Ron's name because he find Ron valuable
      2) Snivelous was the Marauder's nickname for Snape, that's a fact. But it's not a public nickname you sign your book with.
      Fantastic Beasts shows us the book being signed by Harry's real name.

    I wonder. When Fudge wouldn't believe Dumbledore that Voldemort had returned, couldn't Dumbledore have used Harry's memory and shown it to Fudge inside the pensieve. Then again, I guess Fudge still wouldn't have believed the evidence because he already believed that Harry was mentally unstable, thanks to Rita Skeeter's article.

      Sound like you have either a bad feed or your device has too much running in the background. If you are on Android got to the Play Store and turn Auto Update off, Go to Setting -> Accounts Google and Sync everything. If this still doesn't work reboot your device. Often syncing or updating in the background will make your device hang or drag.

    I am convinced Cornelius Fudge lives in the apartment above mine. I know it’s him without a doubt. Sometimes when I catch him walking to or from his apartment I will corner and confront him trying to get him to unveil his true identity. He says things like, “I am a 68 year old Black man from Ethiopia I don’t know who this Fudge man is but please leave me alone.” He’s a sneaky one for sure, but I would expect nothing less from a wizard. I will catch him one day mark my words.

    In some ways, Fudge's behaviour was similar to Richard Nixon. A skilled politician who let paranoia over perceived "threats" to his own power overcome better judgement (Watergate scandal in Nixon's case, the cover-up over Voldemort returning to his own body for Fudge)
