* Considering that the Magic Mirror is omnipresent and knows where and when everyone is, the Queen could have used him to give info on criminals, enemies, and rebels, than she can easily send guards to hunt them down, but considering that she primarily uses it to reaffirm her own beauty, it tells us that she is so vain she doesn't even care about what her citizens ''think''.

* Snow White's dress is composed [[PrimaryColorChampion entirely of primary colors: a yellow skirt and shoes, a blue bodice and sleeves, and a red bow and sleeve stripes.]] She also has brown eyes. What color do you get if you mix yellow, blue, and red together? That's right. Snow White's eye color is made from a combination of all three primary colors.

* After work, the dwarfs lock the gems they've mined in a shed and they hang the key ''right next to the door in plain view''. If somebody happened to pass by the shed, it wouldn't be very hard for them to unlock the door and steal the jewels that were inside. And given they have a massive pile of jewels but live in a tiny badly maintained house its possible that's happened already. That or the taxes in the kingdom are high, which adds another reason to hate the Queen.

* The only antidote to the poisoned apple is Love's FirstKiss. This means that the Prince's kiss would have had no effect if he had been able to kiss Snow White during their first meeting. And if the apple were fed to anyone who had never found love, or who was already married or in an established relationship that already included kissing, there would have been no way to revive that person. Snow White is only saved by the sheer dumb luck that she and the Prince were already in love but hadn't yet kissed.

Added one more piece of Fridge Brilliance.



to:

* When Snow White says she can cook, she sounds very confident and lists a variety of things she can make, which is strange when you remember she's a princess, so why in the world does she know how to cook, let alone with the that level of confidence? Then you take into account she was mentioned in the beginning to be a ''scullery maid.'' For one, it's the lowest position in the castle. But also, the scullery is the wash room, and located next to the kitchen. It could also be used as a backup kitchen if the main one was overwhelmed. It has been noted that with a clever maid and a chef willing to teach, a scullery maid could indeed learn how to cook. Snow learned how ''from'' the chef in that exact way. The scullery maid thing is unique to Disney, and it works extremely well.

Added DiffLines:

** Likely, if Snow White's kingdom were to follow the HeirClubForMen rule, both kingdoms would unite through their marriage. Or she becomes the queen regnant and the Prince becomes her consort.

to:

* Snow White seems so oblivious to her Stepmother's personality and abilities that even the Dwarfs come off as far more savvy to what she is capable of. Remember however, that for most of her life, the Queen wanted as little to do with Snow White as possible, demoting her to a mere servant and sentencing her to clean their large castle, while the Dwarfs were civilians under the Queen's rule, so likely have witnessed first hand things that occur under her power.

to:

* Why does the Mirror think Snow White is fairer than the queen? Both are beautiful, but the queen only cares about herself, so her beauty is only skin deep, while Snow White's kind heart makes her beautiful both inside and out.

* Snow White's love of housework is seen as ValuesDissonance by some today. But from a Watsonian point of view, it might be a kind of StockholmSyndrome — the Queen has forced Snow to do housework all her ''life''. It is perfectly natural, and also somewhat heartbreaking, that she was forced to find some pleasure in that to avoid sinking into depression, to the point that she can imagine no other way to enjoy herself by the time she gets to the Dwarfs' cottage.

** Grumpy's declaration that the Queen "knows ''everything''" isn't far off either, just lacking the means ''how'' she does. The magic mirror literally tells her everything she needs to find Snow White.

* The face of the Magic Mirror is green, the color of envy, so he can be interpreted as a literal reflection of the Queen's jealousy over Snow White.

** Can we just take a moment to consider what kind of hell Snow White's childhood must've been being raised by a woman who's willing to ''send a huntsmen to killer her'' if she gets too pretty?

to:

* Fridge Tear Jerker: As Snow White had to dress in rags (probably on the Queen's order), there's nothing stopping her from wearing the same out to the forest. It's highly possible that the huntsman told her to wear a pretty outfit - a last act of kindness before she has to die.

* How did the Queen ''immediately'' narrow down the "FairestOfThemAll " to Snow White? Surely there must be others in the land who have red lips, black hair and pale skin, ''[[ThePurge unless there aren't any...]]''
** Then again, the Mirror flat out says who it is the second time around and probably would've corrected her had she been wrong.
