Find it interesting that Beetlejuice's shrunken-head assistant is named Bob since The Joker's assistant is named Bob in Batman, which also stars Michael Keaton and directed by Tim Burton. Was this an intentional homage to Batman?
shareThe very second I saw his name tag it made me think of Bob from Batman. I was wondering if Burton always had a Bob character in his movies.
shareWhat other Burton movies have a character named Bob?
shareYou know…..now that I think about it, you’ve got
Bob Scissorhands
Nightmare Before Bobmas
Bob and the Chocolate Factory
Planet of the Bobs
Bobman of course
and Bob’s Big Adventure
I’d never really noticed this before! There’s probably others I forgot
However I do not believe he was involved with What About Bob?
I’m no expert on Tim Burton movies but there is apparently also a Bob in Frankenweenie.
