I know you guys were used to my fast updates, but I hope this one wasn't too slow for you! I also hope that I don't miss any questions – if I do feel free to bug me via Private Message.
If the spell McReary Time-reary rewinds time, but only wizards noticed the rewind, then why haven't we seen other little moments where the time has backed up? I'm sure they aren't the only ones who have dropped a crystal ball, or needed a quick redo.
There are a few possible explanations. For one, it might be that it happens all the time but the show skips over it. However, the other possibility is that it only rewinds time in a local area. I don't know how far the movie theater is from the Sub Station, but it's possible that the spell only affects the area of a city block or so.
And for that matter, why haven't
they used it since? I understand the need for plot, but if Alex had
just done that spell, wouldn't it have undone the spell she did to
make her parents not meet?
The spell that Alex cast, even by accident, was too powerful to undo simply by reversing time, because the spell itself already reached back far in time.
Shouldn't Kelbo have the family wand, since he's the family wizard?
Possibly, but Kelbo also adores his niece and nephews. He may have given up the family wand to them just out of uncleyness.
We all know that Juliet and her family are vampires. But how come they can eat what other humans eat, like steaks and vegetables and stuff?
Vampires are able to eat food other than human, but they really crave blood, and are even dependent on it, but that doesn't mean it's the only thing they can eat. Of course, in a lot of fiction they can be sustained on animal blood (Which is why Alucard likes rare steak, naturally), so we should assume that they eat a diet that happens to include blood, rather than being wholly subsistent on it.
Also, can the Wizards-verse vampires
come out at night, because the Van Heusons were supposed to go
camping, which usually means you stay over, even in daylight.
They probably can. I believe we have seen Juliet out in the day, when they went to tell Jerry and Theresa that they were in love. (Er, that Juliet and Justin were.... Jerry and Theresa already know they're in love with one another.)
Does Juliet have some kind of
power, because in the first part of the saga, she could make Justin
fall asleep and wake up at will.
Yes. Vampires have all kinds of weird and kooky powers. This was an example of a rather classic vampire power though, that of the ability to control people mentally.
In the episode 'Graphic Novel' Gigi pretty much finds out that Alex is a wizard, but why doesn't she tell anybody, instead, choosing to tell everyone that Alex has a crush on Dean?
She doesn't actually discover that Alex is a wizard. Remember that she claimed she was reading the book and it seemed really graphic. Once again this ties into the denial all mortals seem to carry with them about magic.
Also, when Max trapped Gigi in the
book, why didn't he and Justin think of just going in there and
getting her out before she realized what was going on?
They didn't know that she would think it was just a vivid journal, so they thought that she would immediately know something magical was up.
Doesn't anyone realize the
different characters that the actor, Amanda Tepe, plays? Wouldn't
they see that they are the same person, or at least see how similar
the character look?
Much like the fact that there are three people that look like Selena Gomez in the universe, there are either a ton of people who look like Amanda Tepe, or she has some sort of secret plan going on. Either way, people don't think of it because they don't expect to run into the same person all over the place. Think of how many people you run into, but forget their face quickly afterwards. This, ramped up a bit because mortals are rather oblivious in the Wizards universe, is all part of her plan.
Max reaches his full wizarding
powers in the episode 'Potion Commotion', but why did it take him so
long to get them?
Well we don't know when Justin and Alex got their full powers – since he is the youngest it could have occurred at around the same time. I suspect it's a biological function (possibly linked to puberty), and everyone matures at a different rate, so why not?
Also, why, in previous episodes, was he learning and practicing the same spells that Alex and Justin were?
Largely I suspect that their father is teaching them the know-how, rather than having them practice how to cast spells. They need to know which spells to cast and when, as well as being able to cast them. Most of the lessons are "This is the spell, here's how you cast it", while the can levitating lesson was a "practice casting this spell" lesson. It's a fine, but important, distinction.
