Leans Right
Primary
The film is neutral as it explores an individual's journey of self-discovery and the consequences of disrupting established traditions, ultimately championing the respectful coexistence of distinct cultural practices rather than promoting a specific political ideology.
The film features a cast of non-human, fantastical characters, which means it does not engage with human racial or gender diversity in its casting. The narrative also does not present any critiques of traditional identities or incorporate explicit DEI themes.
Secondary
The Nightmare Before Christmas does not include any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on Jack Skellington's quest for new purpose and the clash of holiday traditions, without engaging with queer identity in any capacity.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The Nightmare Before Christmas is an original story, not an adaptation of pre-existing material with established characters of different genders. All characters' genders are established within this film, meaning no character was previously canonized as a different gender.
The Nightmare Before Christmas features original, largely non-human characters created for the film. There are no instances where a character, previously established as one race in source material or prior canon, is portrayed as a different race.
