History WesternAnimation / HappilyEverAfter

The film 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 as instead their cousins, the seven elementally powered Dwarfelles have moved in. This leads to one big girl posse chasing down Maliss to rescue The Prince. Along the way, they are followed by a hooded individual called The Shadow Man.

''Happily Ever After'' is an unofficial {{sequel}} to Creator/{{Disney}}'s ''WesternAnimation/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs'', [[TheShelfOfMovieLanguishment produced in 1988 and released in 1993]] by Creator/{{Filmation}}. As the studio had actually gone under in 1989, the film is also Filmation's last project. As with most Filmation productions, it features low budget animation and a typical [[HighFantasy high fantasy/adventure]] setting, though to divert from the Disney setting, it takes some serious plot detours.

* AwardBaitSong: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IU2hliMMf-k&t=2s "Love Is the Reason"]], performed by [[Film/{{Flashdance}} Irene Cara]], is a pop-rock ballad that plays over the end credits (the beginning credits too in some versions) with inspiring lyrics about how "you" have untapped potential hidden deep inside and should reach for it.

* BaitAndSwitch: At the end, after Mother Nature has congratulated everyone, Sunburn says that, of course, ''some'' of them were more useful than others. Muddy scolds Sunburn; honestly, must Sunburn take ''all'' the credit? [[spoiler:No, she must not, as Sunburn wasn't talking about herself, she meant ''Thunderella'', who really came through.]]
* BalefulPolymorph: [[spoiler:The Prince is turned into the suspicious-looking, unable-to-speak Shadow Man by Maliss. It makes life hard for him since he wants to help Snow White but the dwarfelles keep telling her not to trust him because of how he looks.]]

* {{Bowdlerise}}: The American DVD sloppily edits out a lot of the violence present in the original VHS edition, such as Dragon!Maliss taking an arrow to the leg, Maliss being slapped by Snow White, and some shots from when the dwarfelles take on Maliss. [[note]]This last one results in a famous continuity mistake where Snow White, who's supposed to be tied up, brings her free hands to her face, only for them to be tied back up again in the next shot. This mistake didn't happen originally.[[/note]]

* DisneyDeath: In the climax, [[spoiler: the Shadow Man and six Dwarfelles]] are stunned or turned to stone.

* EarnYourHappyEnding: Turns out that the demise of Snow White's stepmother is not the end of her problems -- she still has to contend with Maliss, who's motivated by avenging his sister, the aforementioned step-mother. Snow White suffers a lot as she loses her Prince to Maliss and has to go find him, not even knowing if he's still alive, has to deal with many dangerous creatures, sees her friends turned to stone and nearly suffers the same fate. However, everything ends up working out for the best thanks to certain characters' (ie: Thunderella) pluck, and Snow White is definitely allowed her happily ever after with her Prince at the end.

* CallASmeerpARabbit: Snow White calling Maliss' dragon form a 'bird'.

* DistressedDude: The thrust of the plot is the heroes storming Maliss' castle to rescue the Prince. [[spoiler:Of course, since he's been turned into the Shadow Man, he's actually loose for most of the film.]]

* FieldPowerEffect: Mother Nature and, by extension, the Dwarfelles cannot use their powers in the Realm of Doom. But Mother Nature can kick Maliss' ass any day if he's outside it. [[spoiler:Thunderella eventually ''does'' manage to use her powers even inside the Realm of Doom, hitting Maliss with a lightning bolt so Snow White can petrify him.]]

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: [[spoiler:Lord Maliss' final fate is becoming petrified by his own cloak.]]

* IndyHatRoll: Sunburn does one in Maliss' castle, after she hits the door's trigger out of frustration. It's also one of the few examples to use an upward-closing door.

** Scowl himself definitely counts, boasting of how bad he is and yet does more to hinder Maliss' pursuit of Snow White than he does to help it, to the point where Maliss himself hopes to roast him purely for his own amusement.

* 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.

* StormingTheCastle: After Maliss succeeds in kidnapping Snow White, the Dwarfelles take it upon themselves to invade his castle in order to help her, with many run-ins with Maliss' goons along the way.

* UnwillingSuspension: After Maliss' minion Scowl gets in the way of his quest for revenge on Snow White one too many times, Maliss punishes Scowl by tying him up and hanging him over a boiling cauldron. Batso eventually saves Scowl from this fate.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: The Prince’s horse is never seen again after Maliss’ first attack on Snow White.
** The fate of the Queen/Maliss’ minions after the latter is defeated.

* 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.

* BigDamnHeroes: When Snow White is about to be turned into stone by Maliss, the Dwarfelles suddenly show up, rushing to the rescue, and proceed to beat up Maliss, giving Snow White time to escape. But then Maliss manages to turn the Dwarfelles into stone and is about to do the same to Snow White again. Except Thunderella didn't get turned to stone, and she electrocutes Maliss, which stuns him long enough for Snow White to turn his powers on him.

* DisneyDeath: [[spoiler:The Shadow Man and six Dwarfelles.]]

* EarnYourHappyEnding: Turns out that Snow White's step-mother is not the end of her problems and she still has to contend with Maliss, who's motivated by avenging his sister, the aforementioned step-mother. Snow White suffers a lot as she loses her Prince to Maliss and has to go find him, not even knowing if he's still alive, has to deal with many dangerous creatures, sees her friends turned to stone and nearly suffers the same fate. However, everything ends up working out for the best thanks to certain characters' (ie: Thunderella) pluck, and Snow White is definitely allowed her happily ever after with her Prince at the end.

* FeministFantasy: Snow White is out to save her prince and the dwarves have been replaced by dwarfelles. There's also an additional "empowerment" element for little girls watching the movie, as [[spoiler:Thunderella, the youngest of the Dwarfelles, does finally manage to "get it right" regarding her powers and is primarily the one responsible for the villain's defeat.]]

* NoSongForTheWicked: Maliss does not get a musical number and he's certainly a lot more threatening than his funny minion Scowl, who does. Then again, would you want to see Maliss rap?
* OminousOwl: Scowl is a [[SubvertedTrope subversion]]. Despite being on the bad guys side, he's a ButtMonkey and not threatening at all.

''Happily Ever After'' is an unofficial sequel to Creator/{{Disney}}'s ''Disney/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs'', [[TheShelfOfMovieLanguishment produced in 1988 and released in 1993]] by Creator/{{Filmation}}. As the studio had actually gone under in 1989, the movie is also Filmation's last project. As with most Filmation productions, it features low budget animation and a typical [[HighFantasy high fantasy/adventure]] setting, though to get away from the Disney setting, it takes 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.

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.

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.

* ColorWash: This movie just ''abuses'' the color blue. For example, the Realm of Doom is completely painted in blue.
* CoversAlwaysLie: The dwarfelles are way bigger than the cover suggests. Plus, they made Shadow Man appear to be the BigBad of the movie.

[[TheBeastMaster Critterina]]'s power is not quite elemental.

** Not just that but Ed Asner and Frank Welker appear in that film and this film as henchmen who eventually switch sides. In ''Pinocchio and the Emperor of the Night'' they voice Scalawag and Igor and in this film they voice Scowl and Batso.

** 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.]]
