Arrow J.R. Ramirez is Ted "Wildcat" Grant!

[Mikelus]

Not going to lie, I'm having a hard time with the guy playing Wildcat. He's incredibly stiff, and many of his line deliveries are cringe worthy. The last episode he was better, showing a bit of playfulness with Laurel (it was nice to see any emotion from him to be honest) but it's still rough. I wish they could have gotten a better actor.

The same thing could be said about several characters when you think of it:

- Colton Haynes (Roy) is not a good actor, too limited with his facial expressions.

- Cynthia Addai Robinson is miscast as Waller, even the show is not using the character much.

- Caity Lotz (Sara) not a good actress and her resume shows it too: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caity_Lotz

- J.R. Ramírez (Wildcat), another miscast...

And even Amell is not great, just decent enough, he needs to learn more from John Barrowman and be less stiff.

We have plenty of reasons to be happy the DCCU and CWverse are separate, imagine if they had used Arrow's version of the Suicide Squad in the movies... a huge fail. Instead, we're getting top actors and a badass SS line up, and if later on they want to use Green Arrow and Black Canary in the JL movies, they could get better actors than Amell and Cassidy.

I thought Caity Lotz was good. Especially considering how new she is.

So is that why they decided to bring her character into the Hong Kong flashbacks (a foreshadowing moment done at the end of the Suicide Squad episode in season two)

Addai-Robinson is fine in the part. Definitely NOT stiff or limited like Lotz or Haynes. I just wish they would give her something to do other than wanting to bomb things.

Eh, I feel like Cynthia is miscast too. She's doing the best she can, but she just doesn't have the intensity the character needs. I also think she's too young. I've always envisioned Waller as someone who looks world-weary. Cynthia isn't even in her 30s.

 

[Matt.S99]

She works just fine for the "New 52" version, but that's not saying much.

Is Robinson on another show or something? It's weird that we haven't seen that much of Waller this season. I hope it's not going to be another Isabel situation.

She's been working on a History channel miniseries overseas where she plays the female lead, so that could be it. Robert Knepper (Clock King) happens to be in it as well.

 

[Matt.S99]

What happened to Isabel? I totally don't remember.

 

[Nathan]

Eh, the less of Waller the better. Can't stand the way she's been written. Or the actress's acting.

She

got her neck snapped

 

[Matt.S99]

Oh, yeah! Thanks for the refresher.

Amanda Waller’s character is “Oh **** there is a problem..Well lets kill it or nuke and hope NOBODY ever has any suspicions.

Oh, yeah! Thanks for the refresher.

Sad they kill her early..

 

[Matt.S99]

I know! She was a pretty cool baddie.

At least she did more on the show than she did on the comics
