* XanatosSpeedchess: This time around, Rumpelstiltskin doesn't simply rely on his name being to exotic to be found out, but effectively takes precautions to make sure no one does, and intervenes a few times whenever the need arises. He legitimately would have won, had he not boasted about his name before he made the deal with Snow White.

It later received a sequel, ''7 Zwerge - Der Wald ist nicht genug'' ("7 Dwarves - [[Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough The Forest Is Not Enough]]"), very loosely based on the fairy tale {{Literature/Rumpelstiltskin}}. Set a year later, Rumpelstiltskin shows up to eat Snow White's baby, unless she can guess his name. The now separated dwarves must regather and go on an adventure to discover Rumpelstiltskin's name, while avoiding his plots to kill or distract them.

** The Mirror especially towards the Queen in the first movie. Though the dwarves stupidity also brings this side out in the second one.



* HammerSpace: Tschakko is famous for producing huge objects out of nowhere. He usually carries a battering ram around, just in case they have to break in someone's door.

* OnlySaneMan: Among the dwarves, it's Brumboss in the first movie and Cookie in the second. The mirror and the huntsman would also count. Cloudy often appears to be one, due to his deadpan nature, but he isn't much better than the rest of them. In a villainous sense, Rumpelstiltskin also counts, especially when compared to the Queen.



* AdaptationalBadass: Rumpelstiltskin wasn't a shapeshifter in the original fairy tale (though he did have magic powers), nor was he as proactive in achieving his goal.
* AdaptationalVillainy: While not exactly a pleasant person in the original fairy tale, Rumpelstiltskin wasn't quite as murderous as he is portrayed here, and nothing implied that he was going to eat the miller's daughter's child.



* CallBack: Sunny muses on howhe imagined the Evil One to be much taller, to which said person responds that most people think so.
--> '''Cloudy:''' Those old preconceptions

* FailedAttemptAtDrama: Hilariously so, at Rumpelstiltskin's expense. Thanks to a malfunctioning lighter, a rusty pendulum, and his inability to tell apart the broomcloset door from the exit door.
* TheFairFolk: While it's not specifically stated, Rumpelstiltskin bears a lot of similarities to them, even more so than in the original fairy tale. Here, he is a shapeshifter, fond of making magic deals with people that will end up biting them, and in general enjoys messing with humans for his own amusement. He is more on the malevolent side, though.



* IAmAHumanitarian: Rumpelstiltskin intends to eat the baby in this adaptation. He even attempts to discuss recipe ideas with said baby's ''mother''.



* SkewedPriorities: Spliss is hesitant to trade the baby's portrait to Rumpelstiltskin (in exchange for ''blond hair''), because it's supposed to be a birthday present for the boy. When the former clarifies he wants the child, not the picture, Spliss casually states that he can have the baby.



* VillainBall: While otherwise rather competent, he could havesaved himself some trouble, had he not wrote down his name to the witch.

* {{Jerkass}}: Spliss. It's a minor case, as the BigBag around is usually worse than him. He is not really evil, as much as very, very selfish, especially in the second movie, where he starts the whole plot by selling Snow White's child to Rumpelstiltskin in exchange for ''flowing blond hair''.
* KarmaHoudini: Spliss, twice. In the first movie, he was in on the Queen's plot, but didn't get any punishment, and he avoided it yet again in the second movie, despite being the one who ''sold Snow White's child'' to Rumpelstilskin.

He does lose his blond hair,though, due to Rumpelstiltskin's ExactWords.

--> '''Cloudy:''' Those old preconceptions



* LarynxDissonance: Being a shapeshifter, Rumpelstiltskin can perfectly copy the voice of anyone without changing his appearance. He does so twice, once as Udo Lindenberg and once to imirate Snow White, much to the witch's chagrin.



--->'''Rumpelstiltskin:''' Dwarves, how I hate them! Oh no, dwarves are good, dwarves are friends! Nonsense! They don't want me to get the cild. My precious! But you can't just kill them! [''holds a bottle of poison''] Oh yes, I can.


Added DiffLines:

* TakeThat: A mild one. Rumpelstiltskin apparently considers Udo Lindenberg to be his most inhumane embodiment.
* VillainBall: While otherwise rather competent, he could havesaved himself some trouble, had he not wrote down his name to the witch.


Added DiffLines:

* VoluntaryShapeshifter: Rumpelstiltskin is one in this version and makes great use of his ability.
