bitterguardian((This is so stupid, I'm having an insomniac night for no particular reason, but then my brain prompted me with a horrible, terrible, glaring continuity issue in the Sorcerer's Apprentice movie;
When Horvath and Morgana busted into the keep, she told him to fetch the page from the spell book for The Rising, which implies she basically needs that page. Horvath rips it out of the book, retreats. Morgana gets sucked into Veronica/the Grimhold before she can rejoin him.
Fast forward to the climax of the movie, Horvath releases her from the Grimhold, and Morgana immediately starts doing the spell. Soooo... did she not actually need that page, or what? Am I supposed to believe there was some cutscene where Horvath goes 'oh hey, been carrying this around a thousand years and had it on my person when I got sucked into that urn and all' and hands her the page? If he's been carrying it all that time, you'd think he'd be just as capable of doing the damn spell himself, frankly, which begs the question of what he needed Morgana for at that point anyway... unless what he was really after was the hope that Veronica survived in there. I'd buy that at least, after her comment about how he looks at her. That still doesn't explain why she claimed to need a page from a book that she never got and then did the spell without.
Right. Gonna try sleeping again.))

just as OOC
Date: 2014-08-05 11:14 am (UTC)...I mean, this is a good point. There is that scene in Drake's penthouse where Balthazar's looking around and figures out they're going to cast The Rising, but I can't remember what he's looking at when he draws that conclusion. So obviously we have to watch the movie again.))
