Red and the Rainbow of Dreams

Red and the Rainbow of Dreams is a 2003 Canadian-American-Japanese computer/traditionally-animated fantasy film released on May 9, 2003. It is based off of the Gameboy Advance game of the same name.

Plot
The plot remains faithful to the original GBA game: The Rainbow of Dreams mysteriously fades away as Red and her siblings rescue it to prevent restless nights or worse, a nightmare. So they travel to eight different islands. With each island giving it's own clue. With the seven guardians all defending Red using spell the Color Wand, then shoots the magic rainbow the part of the dream rainbow. With Terrible Termite behind this, the gang steps into action an defeat him and his allies (Brock the Boulder, Lady Cyclops, King Killer Whale, Grand Daddy Clock, The Mid-Boss Gang, Cloudy-Freeza and Princess Magma) only to realize that Terrible Termite was actually influenced by an evil alien force known as the the Beetoids who did this so they have enough nightmares to rule the galaxy. So Red herself decides to take on the space threat face-to-face with her weapon, The dreamy sword. As the beetoid trio try to control Red, she refuses and reflects all of their attacks. When the three were defeated, their bodies drifted into space only to become it's true form: A white blob-like matter where they fuse into a bigger blob named Dark Bee Hive. With Red looking tired, the monster tries to take over her until the Dreamy Sword defended her from the nightmares they project. Then her dream occurs. an anime-style cut-scene where Red begins to shoot a rainbow beam against what appears to be a void of nightmares with white slime oozing from it. The dream continues with Red changing into a Magical Girl look and shoots even more rainbows until she became one herself. When she woke up, the Dreamy Sword was absorbed by her and she did what she did in her dream, fired a beam of rainbow from her hands. With all of her might, she was able to throw the hive into it's true origin, a Black Hole filled with envy, hatred, violence and other negative qualities. During the epic climax, Red though the adventure was done until the hive completely destroys it's origin hive and turns into Queen Honeybee. The first of the three Queen bees of terror. When she was defeated by all of the good dreams and positive qualities Red had, She flees as her body begins to turn white again (this time with seven eyes) and she shreaked with anger as she fled. When this ended, the rainbow returns in it's original condition.
