Line 204:
** The part where Snow White enters the Dark Forest while fleeing capture. The manner in which she mourns her horse's loss as it gets stuck in the bog is reminiscent of how [[The Neverending Story|Atreyu]] mournfully watching Artax die in the Swamp of Sadness.
** The part where Snow White gets lost in the Dark Forest and gets into a [[Troubled Fetal Position]] is reminiscent of when an utterly dejected Bella Swan gets into that same position in the forest after Edward Cullen leaves her in the ''New Moon'' film.
** When the eight dwarfs appear, their blind leader Muir is seen wearing a beaked mask like the ones worn by plague doctors during the Middle Ages. In effect, he's [[Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Disney film)|Doc]]. Could also be a mythology gag.
** {{spoiler|The White Hart}} in the Sanctuary is a clear [[Shout-Out]] to {{spoiler|the Forest Spirit in ''[[Princess Mononoke]]''}}. {{spoiler|He even gets abruptly shot by the bad guys in a similar manner as he's meeting with the protagonist!}}
** One of the dwarves starts singing the Disney film's "Heigh-ho" song {{spoiler|while sneaking into the royal castle.}}
Line 260:
* [[Wounded Gazelle Gambit]]: Ravenna pulls one to gain the king's sympathy.
* [[Xenafication]]: In this version, [[Jeanne D'Archetype|Snow White]] goes [[Joan of Arc]] on her enemies.
* [[X Meets Y]]: ''[[Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Disney film)|Snow White]]'' meets ''[[The Lord of the Rings (film)|Lord of the Rings]]''.
* [[Ye Goode Olde Days]]/[[The Dung Ages]]: Both are used, depending on whether times are good or times are bad. In the beginning of the movie under the reign of King Magnus, the kingdom was prosperous, while everything is dirty and grimy when Ravenna is queen.
* [[You Killed My Father]]: Invoked during the climax, by Ravenna rather than Snow.
