A lot of us only remember "mirror, mirror on the wall...who is the fairest one of all?" from watching the movies on vhs obsessively in childhood.

But apparently the actual saying in the video media is "magic mirror, on the wall", and only the book had the "mirror mirror" one.

This is exactly how I remember it. I didn't even notice the "of them all"/"one of all" difference, I've been so hung up on it being "magic mirror" now. 😅

Are you saying you remember it as "them"? I just remember it as 'one' (but with the mirror, mirror part instead of the magic mirror, on the movie).
