The Burton/Depp movie has, in more than one instance, blended characteristics from multiple original series characters into a single, new persona.  If we are lucky enough to see a sequel, what other pairs or groups of characters could be creatively combined?  Let your imaginations run wild.  :)

Personally I would like to see it revealed that Mrs. Johnson is actually semi-retired good witch Bathia Mapes.

I think that I'd like to see a hybrid of Paul Stoddard and Nicholas Blair.

I want a hybrid of Prof. Stokes and Pansy Faye.  Imagine the shrieks when Stokes enters the great hall wearing nothing but a long, hot-pink boa and starts to hootchie-kootch his way through "I wanna dance for you."

It would give Depp and Pfeiffer wonderful opportunities for eye-rolling and mugging if nothing else.

Sadly, I feel like the film's Roger already had a bit too much Paul Stoddard in him.

How about Professor Alexis Stokes, occult expert who is also a lookalike for Angelique?

The term comes out of science fiction fandom.

I like Stokesy Faye, and Traskbuzz.

Oh my, Traskbuzz would probably make my brain explode, lol  [ghost_grin]  I'm not good at thinking of hybrids/combos, but I would love to see both Trask and Prof. Stokes represented in some fashion in a sequel.  Trask especially- he was such a delicious adversary.  In Stokes' case, I'm not sure how much it was that I was a fan of the character per se because to be honest, I was just always in awe of Thayer David.  The funny thing is, I could totally see Thayer wearing a hot pink boa!

Thayer got up to some pretty wild stuff (in the company of Christopher Pennock and an incredible ensemble cast) in the early Merchant/Ivory indie movie, Savages.

Cousin B I am sorry your song was deleted.  I thought it was a hoot!

I think there should be a hybrid of Suki Forbes and Count Petofi.  I leave the possibilities to your imagination.

A hybrid of Cassandra and Magda would liven things up.

Taking the queston seriously, I think a Joe/Quentin hybrid would make a lot of sense as a love intrest for Carolyn in a few years.
