Frodo had a happy ending. He stopped apocalypse, saved his friends, his people and the world, and then gained admission to the Undying land. Tony Stark in End Game is a happy ending. He completed his journey with a heroic sacrifice. Though it was kind of an unnecessary sacrifice, as Magical Marvel should have been able to snap her finger and save the universe herself, without dying. Cinderella's is not just a happy ending, it is a fairy tale ending (a specific type of happy ending) **I think a happy ending is an ending with where the character grew and the quest fulfilled.** Amadeus (in the movie with the same name) had genius. But he didn't grow, and his life was cut short and the world was poorer for it. Death itself does not an unhappy ending make. Everyone dies in the end, even elves and Cinderella.
