* AbusiveMom: Lady Hogbottom is this to Rupert, albeit mildly.



* IJustWantToBeFree: Rupert would rather run away with Charity as his bride rather than co-operate in his mother’s scheme to reclaim her birthright.



* SurroundedByIdiots: Like so many other family-friendly villains, Lady Hogbottom has to put up with her son Rupert, henchman Murphy, her kleptomaniac maid Charity and her narcoleptic butler Darwood, who are nowhere near as menacing as she is.

''Annie: A Royal Adventure!'' is a MadeForTVMovie that premiered on Creator/{{ABC}} in 1995. It is presumably a sequel to the 1982 film ''[[{{Film/Annie 1982}} Annie]]'' (at least that's how Website/{{IMDb}} recognizes it), but it has [[TheOtherDarrin none of the same cast]] and is not a musical (unless you count a single reprise of "Tomorrow" at the end). The film has a SequelGoesForeign plot in which Annie, Warbucks, and company travel to England with Creator/JoanCollins playing a RichBitch villainess. Features Creator/IanMcDiarmid as an AbsentMindedProfessor and a carrot-top Ashley Johnson as the title character, but [[SequelNonEntity Grace Farrell neither appears nor is mentioned]].

Palpatine's not on the poster, and I've never played Last of Us, so I don't get either of these references.

* ArtisticLicenseHistory: Upon arriving in Britain, Warbucks meets with UsefulNotes/WinstonChurchill, who is identified as the Prime Minister. Churchill did not become Prime Minister until 1940, yet the setting is clearly pre-UsefulNotes/WorldWarII. Furthermore, the first movie was set in 1933 and Annie was ten then, so if it's 1940 then she should be seventeen by now, but she's obviously not.

** When Annie is working as a newspaper girl in the opening scenes, the headline (which she reads aloud for us) is "world population soars to 2.5 billion". That didn't happen until about 1950. (Although given the [[AnachronismStew preponderance of 1950s automobiles]], maybe they just changed the setting from the 1930s to the 1950s for some reason. That would account for Churchill being Prime Minister.)

Features [[Franchise/StarWars Emperor Palpatine]] as an AbsentMindedProfessor, but [[SequelNonEntity Grace Farrell neither appears nor is mentioned]].

!!This movie has examples of:

* AppliedPhlebotinum: Eonite. It's originally from [[ComicStrip/LittleOrphanAnnie the comic strip]], as is its inventor Professor Eli Eon.
* AristocratsAreEvil: Lady Hogbottom, played by JoanCollins.
* ExcitedShowTitle
* FortuneTeller: Annie meets one near the beginning of the movie, who makes some [[{{Foreshadowing}} ominous predictions]]. It seems a little surprising at first that Warbucks takes these predictions seriously... but then you remember this is the same universe where Punjab can makes things float in midair and such. Either that or he's just humoring Annie.
* GenreShift: Not a musical and solidly in the SnoopingLittleKid genre.
* ItWillNeverCatchOn: Inverted:
-->'''Warbucks''': Yes, my advice would be, you reach a lot of people by radio, but television is the future.
* KidnappedScientist: Professor Eon, in the last act.
* LittleStowaway: Annie and Hannah smuggle Molly along on their voyage to England. Miss Hannigan finds out and runs after the ship as it departs, yelling "Stowaway! Stowaway!" Annie manages to convince Warbucks that she's saying "Stay awhile! Stay awhile!"
* MadeForTVMovie
* RememberTheNewGuy: You remember Annie's best friend Hannah from the first movie, right? Hannah even "remembers" being in Miss Hannigan's orphanage with Annie, so she can't be someone Annie met later.
* SequelEscalation: The original movie was about Annie being adopted by Warbucks. In this movie, they save England from a ''Film/JamesBond'' villain-type plot.
* SequelGoesForeign: Annie goes to England!
* SequelNonEntity: Grace is gone, [[ChuckCunninghamSyndrome with no explanation]]. Also, all the other orphans except for Molly. Rooster and Lily are presumably still rotting in jail, so they have an excuse for not being mentioned.
* SurroundedByIdiots: Lady Hogbottom
* TemptingFate:
**
--->'''Annie''': ''[doing homework on castles]'' Dungeons and secret passageways. Why do we have to study this anyway? Who puts people in dungeons anymore?
** Later, while imprisoned in said dungeon:
--->'''Annie''': I'm sure there are no snakes.
* ThoseTwoBadGuys: Rupert and Murphy
* UnexpectedSuccessor: Lady Hogbottom wants to blow up Buckingham Palace in order to become this trope.
