[[caption-width-right:300: Looks like Snow White got a tan and hair extension.]]
''Happily Ever After'' was an unofficial sequel to Creator/{{Disney}}'s ''Disney/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs'', [[DevelopmentHell produced in 1988 and released in 1993]] by Creator/{{Filmation}}. As the studio had actually gone under in 1989, the movie was also Filmation's last project. As with most Filmation productions, it featured low budget animation and a typical [[HighFantasy high fantasy/adventure]] setting, though to get away from the Disney setting, it took some serious plot detours.
The movie opens literally as the previous story ends with Snow White and [[NoNameGiven The Prince]] are off to go get married after the death of the wicked Queen. Unfortunately, just as this is taking place, the Wicked Queen's brother [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Lord Maliss]] pays a visit at his sister's home and gets caught up on the state of events. Naturally, he vows revenge on Snow White. He kidnaps the Prince but loses Snow White. She ends up back at the house of the seven Dwarfs, who are actually absent for the film as instead their cousins, the seven elementally powered dwarfelles have moved in. This leads to one big girl posse chasing down Lord Maliss to rescue The Prince. Along the way, they are followed by a hooded individual named the Shadow Man.
As you might be able to tell from the plot summary, the film takes more than a few liberties with the fairy tale's setting.
The movie was critically panned upon its release due to its rather cliche story and the low quality of the animation. Despite bombing hard at the box office, the film did manage to develop a cult following on VHS.

* LargeHam: Maliss, as played by ''MalcolmMcDowell''.
* LimitedAnimation: As usual for Creator/{{Filmation}}.
* LovingAShadow: Snow White ends up falling for Shadow Man hard. [[spoiler:[[KingIncognito Aaaawkward...]]]]
* MentorArchetype: Mother Nature
* MinionWithAnFInEvil: Batso and his inability to grasp the concept of "being bad".
* MixAndMatchCritters: Rhino-wolves! And the creatures spawned by Mother Nature.
* MysteriousProtector: The Shadow Man [[spoiler:(a.k.a. The Prince)]]
* MythologyGag: Igor from ''WesternAnimation/PinocchioAndTheEmperorOfTheNight'' appears very briefly in Mother Nature's garden.
* NiceJobFixingItVillain:
** Scowl gets in the way of Maliss chasing Snow White, thus letting her escape. The prince still gets screwed.
** Then there's the scene near the end. [[spoiler:Let's just say they unintentionally help the dwarfelles storm the castle.]]
** Lord Maliss himself isn't immune, because he's only defeated in the end [[spoiler: because instead of just killing Snow White outright when he has the chance, he insists on ''petrifying Snow White with a cloak'', which gave Snow White an opportunity to beat him...with a little help from Thunderella of course.]]
* NoIndoorVoice: Maliss.
* OwlBeDamned: Scowl the owl. Although for all his [[CardCarryingVillain boasting about how "bad" he is]], he's pretty incompetent.
* PanUpToTheSkyEnding
* PantyShot: Done a lot with Thunderella, for some unknown reason.
* PowerIncontinence: Thunderella's main gripe. [[spoiler: She manages to overcome this in the climax.]]
* RageAgainstTheReflection: The Shadowman sees himself in a puddle of water and angrily kicks it with his foot.
* RavenHairIvorySkin: Snow White.
* ScaledUp: Maliss' favored mode of transportation and attack is to turn into a red dragon, and unlike most examples, it was actually pretty effective up until Scowl interfered.
* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: Mother Nature is prone to this.
* ShapeshifterSwanSong: [[spoiler:What happens when Maliss dies. First he turns into his dragon form and then, before he turns into stone underneath the cloak's effects, turns into a dragon with his human face.]]
* ShooOutTheClowns: Scowl and Batso have no involvement whatsoever in the climax of the film. [[spoiler:Unless you count letting the Dwarfelles in accidentally as being involved.]]
* TheSmartGuy: Blossom
* SpiritualSuccessor: Filmation previously did a sequel to Snow White in 1980 - [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Snow_White_Christmas it was a Christmas Special]], and only lasted 50 minutes. That one also much more obviously ripped off Disney - by the time ''this'' film was made, the Mouse had gotten wiser.
* StormingTheCastle
* SurroundedByIdiots: The goons that the Wicked Queen has left to Lord Maliss (who seem, by the way, suspiciously similar to the ones who worked for [[Disney/SleepingBeauty Maleficent]]) are even more bumbling than the dwarfelles -- particularly Scowl.
* TagalongKid: Thunderella, [[spoiler:though ultimately TheHero.]]
* TakenForGranite: Maliss' terror-inducing cloak at the climax of the film.
* TeamMom: Snow White
* TrueBlueFemininity: Snow White.
* {{Tsundere}}: Sunburn.
* VillainSong: "Bad". More like {{Mook}} song, though.
* WalkIntoMordor: Averted. One DOES simply walk into the dark, dreary, dangerous Realm of Doom.
* YouMonster: Spoken by Snow White to Maliss [[spoiler:after the latter turns the dwarfelles to stone and kills The Shadow Man.]]
