I think you have that backwards. When Jack was in the real world it look like the 1990's. While Frankenweenie probably took place between 50's-70's. Then the Corpse Bride is between the late 1800 and early 1900's. So the order of the movies would go as follow: Corpse Bride, Frankenweenie, and Nightmare before Christmas. I’m basing this off of clothes and the technology that is provided (example TV’s.) However does not matter with all of this because Jack is the King of Halloween. Which means that he is as old as Santa Claus and he was never alive in the first place.
What, all of a sudden he became god and broke a rib off and said "This is now bone of my bones, And flesh of my flesh; They shall be called my descendants, Because they were taken out of Me." Jack's full name is Jack Skeleton hint hint nudge nudge, (he's a skeleton no flesh or organs.) Not to be rude or anything but Jack is as old as Santa Claus if you read above. And if does have brother's or descendants they would be on the magical/mythical side. Corpse Bride and Frankenweenie deal with the human side and humans. None of the characters showed any signs of magic which would put them in any relations with Jack. As that being said people are just basing all these characters on their physique and the dog. Their bodies are slender and almost Skeleton like. Their faces (CB and FW) are heart shape and large eyes. The heights for CB and Jack are way different. Look up German Expressionism, this is what influence Tim Burton’s movie style. I’m not going to explain what German Expressionism is
Part 2: what influence Tim Burton’s movie style. I’m not going to explain what German Expressionism is because that would be an essay of sorts and I do not have that much space for it. I really suggest looking this up there were great movies came out that era like The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, Metropolis, and Nosferatu.
When I was watching inside out with my son, sadness has a line when she says she liked the funny movie where the dog dies, I didn't think about it but my son turned and said mom she's talking about Franken weenie!
I realize that has nothing to do with this post but still
