The flour thing is 1000% legit. In my science class many many years ago we use to make this happen on a much smaller scale. This is why places that work around stuff like wood dust and flour are heavily ventilated.
Yep, think silo explosions for the same effect.
Recently a cereal processing plant exploded in Brazil. Killed some people.
@@waterfaucet9926yeah, a grain silo is the one i know of. And when i was a kid, i would gather a bunch of dandelions in their seed stage and get a small but similar effect, accept their was nothing containing them and not nearly enough to make an explosion, just a poof
Silos, wood mills, etc all need special precautions to prevent it.
You can actuall file off fine metal filings and throw them into a ordinary campfire and they'll burn different colors :)
Watch Deadliest Catch, Freddie gets flour bombed around an open flame, he burned his eyebrows I believe….
Denzel Washington is one of the best. I think this was the first time Denzel did a sequel to any film he starred in.
Yup, Denzel is definitely one of the best actors of all time.
Same he is one of the best actors
This marks Denzel's 4th collab with Antoine Fuqua (with 3 being the 5th). I think that's equal to the # of movies he did with Tony Scott.
Correct. The Equalizer sequels are the only sequels Denzel has been in ever.
Same goes for Antoine Fuqua. First ever sequel/franchise he’s ever directed.
The flour when aerosolized can be flammable, so will baby powder. First time I was introduced to this reaction was in high school chemistry class. Look up lycopodium powder, that's most likely what was used in the movie. Grain dust in grain silos are very dangerous just because of the explosive nature of fine particles floating in the air under the right conditions can level a silo.
Lots of surface area to burn.
Take a pinch of non dairy creamer and drop it over an open flame and watch it flare. Wheat grains, flour, creamer, all kinds of powders can be used to explode that aren't normally flammable. Don't think sugar works, but can't remember. Maybe powdered sugar.
That's also why farm silos that are no longer used, need to have the domed roofs removed.
Powdered coffee creamer works really good as an aerosolized explosive. The fine silicone that’s used as an additive is extremely flammable.
Sam was played by veteran actor Orson Bean. For anyone like me who grew up in the 60's,70's and 80's Bean was a regular fixture on TV panel game shows like "To Tell the Truth" and many others. He guest starred on many TV shows until his death in 2020 when he was sadly struck by a car while walking near his home. He was always a great funny story teller when he did the game shows or appeared on whatever talk show he did.
I remember him as a regular on DR. QUINN MEDICINE WOMAN
I remember him from an episode of "Two & a Half Men", lol.
Wow I didn't recognize him - Orson. Glad you mentioned that. So sad he was struck by a car. I remember him being very funny years ago. But he was Very good in this role ..
This franchise had no business being this good, but agree with both of your takes in that the first one was slightly better. I hope you all do E3 eventually. Best to you and Samantha both
Great reaction guys. If you haven't seen Man On Fire, I recommend seeing that one before the last EQ, there's a cool connection in this movie. Denzel plays a similar type character and I'm not giving you spoiler alert you'll figure it out when you see the last one. Thanks again for this reaction.
Spoiler alert. Jeez
The scene with Miles in the hallway is fkn emotional af...very important piece of cinema that goes over most peoples heads
Flour, when mixed with the right amount of oxygen is very explosive and flammable. The CQC (close quarter combat) he uses is very accurate and effective. You would be surprised how often highly trained intelligence operatives, spikes, kites go bad. The private military contractor tends to be a good way to keep them working while supervised so long as the private contractor corporation doesn't turn to the dark side.
You guys are a beautiful couple love re-sharing this moments with you
I'm sure that I'm not the only one who has said this, but I love being apart of this amazing community. You guys bring so much joy to our lives. I've seen all 3 movies and this one is my favorite, Denzel has some of the coldest one liners of all time. A legendary actor.
There is something interesting about the threat Robert made at 10:39 to his former squad. He said that it was unfortunate that he couldn't kill them twice. Miles said that his brother had to be remembered, otherwise it is as if he has died twice. Robert took note of that, which means he desired for those men to not only die, but also be forgotten.
I love the "you don't know what death is "speech
14:42 If you look closely at the security video from the elevator, you'll notice that the screen on the cell phone Pedro's character is so busy fiddling with is turned off. He's not actually doing anything on his phone. That's the first real sign Pedro's character is faking his role and not on the up-and-up.
Nice catch! I didn't even notice he was pretending to use his phone here.
"Hopefully just the wife is dead..."
"Hopefully she's NOT dead!"
You two are too cute.
"I didn't know flour did that!"
Yup. Flour is highly combustible, especially when suspended in the air as dust.
It really is a good movie Pedro Pascal played Dave really well
Pedro Pascal is always a 50-50 in any film as to whether he will be a good guy or a bad guy.
He has a habit of having his eyes gouged out👁️
@@Thepirireis it happened twice not as a habit
@@gailseatonhumbert No sense of humor😑
@@Thepirireis plenty but I also like accuracy over a joke every time.
@@gailseatonhumbert “Accuracy” in fictional works🥱
You guys are now part of my Sunday morning routine (England) get up, cuppa coffee and breakfast while watching TBR on the iPad. Thanks for all your hard work and enthusiasm ❤
@FireMunki63
They're such a sweet couple & they've got their reactions down to a fine art. Love this channel!
Warm regards from a fellow subscriber in Kentucky, U.S.🌿🌿
Completly agree- my favorite reactor couple- both are very intelligent, empathic, and always have an excellent discussion.
Most people like the first one better, but I`ve always loved this a little better...There`s something about the old man in this one that always made me feel good every time I saw him....All of the cast members were outstanding.
Denzel....
"The Hurricane", my favorite early career movie.
"Philadelphia" co-starring with Tom Hanks.
"Training Day", his all time best work.
"The Magnificent Seven", charismatic late career role.
I guess you haven't seen Malcolm X.
"Heart Condition" for a little comedy.
This is why I always carry a harpoon with me...just in case. And yes, flour is combustible.
I'm painting my kitchen, listening to you guys on the computer, having fun providing running commentary...
TBR: I hope Pedro's a good guy!
Me: NO, HE'S NOT!!!😆
I can't remember if it was before or after he said that, but he said something about thinking he was a bad guy.
HELLLOO!!! I remember this tv show from the eighties (yup, I’m old) and the premise is that he helps those who can’t help themselves. Popular trope (A-Team) from that era. I think there’s another tv show with Queen Latifah as the lead.
If there's a lot of flour, dust, or anything with small particles like that floating around in the air it is EXTREMELY flammable. Grain silos would explode if any kind of spark or heat source happens within one because of the dusty air. Now-a-days they would do things like pump inert gases like nitrogen or argon into the silos so that there's less oxygen in there since it's the oxygen that combusts.
Denzel is so watchable. You could just randomly pick any one of his movies and have a good time. Outside of the equalizer, which I have watched many times, probably the others I have most watched are Deja Vu and Inside Man.
Well there goes my vote for Pedro.
That Flour explosion is possible, since the dust particles when suspended in the air are flammable. They have a whole science experiment called "Exploding Custard" that works in a similar way
The most powerful scene is when he goes to retrieve Miles. Makes me tear up every time
All of that flour in the air in the bakery ignited when the flash bang grenade went off... Similar to what happens in a grain elevator explosion.
Flour (or wheat dust) in air is very explosive. There have been brutal grain silo explosion disasters.
Nice review. "Pedro" is also one of the main characters in Wonder Woman '84.
And "The Great Wall", with Matt Damon.
His character in Wonder Woman was actually more malevolent and a threat in the comics
You guys are one of my favorite channels.... All the best to your family
As astonishing as it may sound, the fact is that flour dust is more explosive than gunpowder and 35 times more combustible than coal dust. However, it is not explosive in small, non-dispersed quantities. For example, if you burn a small pile of flour sitting on top of your kitchen counter, it won’t explode since it’s not dispersed in a cloud-like form. The case is different when dealing with airborne flour particles, as they have ample oxygen to fuel combustion. Combine that formula with multiple secondary dust sources in a confined space, add an ignition source, and you have a recipe for a chain reaction that could lead to an explosion. During the past 35 years, more than 500 incidents have been reported in flour mills across the U.S., which have caused more than 180 deaths and 675 injuries. This represents an accurate picture of how destructive exploding flour can be.

Nothing happens to someone he was close with in the first one it is not a repeat of the first film Susan was his friend the girl he talked to in the diner was someone he helped they got along when they talked but they were not friends Susan and Robert were friends for a long time you can't compare
Awesome timing! I'm just re-visiting the 2nd one in preparation for the 3rd movie. Fun to rewatch along with your first time reactions!
I watched the original TV series in the 80s and this film, with his Lyft driving and all the smaller vignettes with the various side characters, completely channeled that vibe of the original show, with McCall helping out various people - layered in with the main story with Melissa Leo's character. So glad to see you guys do this one. (and the scene with McCall and the kid after he gets him out of the gang hideout is straight up fire. SO good.).
It’s my city Boston that it takes place in 😊 I can’t wait for you guys to react to this one! ❤
This franchise is so awesome, kudos to Denzel Washington, cool reaction as always Schmitt & Samantha, you both have a good night
It was flour. When it's aerated like that, the fine flour has more surface area mixed with an abundance of air. Fire only needs three things...air, fuel and an ignition source. The fan spread it throughout a large area. With it igniting so fast in a contained area....explosion.
It's worth watching the equalizer series from the 80's starring Edward woodward it fills in the gaps about his past ..there was 88 episodes altogether over 5 seasons!
Yes..they play traitor music whenever Pedro is on screen...
I love this setting for the final fight cuz I swear it looks like it could be a Modern Warfare map. 🤣
EQ2.
Another kick-a** sequel.
It just never ceases to amaze in having one of the great actors of all time in a well-honed action thriller.
I liked how this one was a little more closer, more personal for McCall.
Betrayal has a way of bringing out the worse in people.
But you don't just think that with McCall, you'll get away with it.
Bigger, better action sequences.
Especially the fight inside of his car and the battle within the storm in his old neighborhood.
EQ2 as Denzel's first sequel outgrossed EQ1.
I saw EQ3 twice at AMC.
You will not be disappointed.
11:23 schmitt spidey sense in effect.
Flour dust is explosive, but the high humidity of the storm (not to mention being located in a seaside town) would probably counteract that property.
When you said "he stabbed that guy everywhere", it made me think of The Hunted with Benicio Del Toro and Tommy Lee Jones. Check it out if you havent... Jones' character at one point during a training scene with knives says "make this cut a good power assist, youre looking for his backbone"
Reminiscent of his films, man on fire, and Book of Eli!
I can't wait for Equalizer 3 and your reaction to it.
Awesome👍. Been waiting for this one. Hope you guys are having a great weekend. Thank you💖🌹.
Robert McCall gives people what they need. Those that need help, they get it. Those that need a lesson, they get it. And those that deserve violence, they get that.
It’s actually incredibly hard to die from a neck break immediately from what I hear.
Getting a full break like in the movies is very hard. It takes quite a bit of torque to fully "snap" a neck. But even if it doesn't break you could be in a halo for a while.
I'd think if the break were complete, then the nerves can't send signals to the heart to keep beating, so death would be immediate. I worked in a chiro office and the chiropractor said it does require a lot of force to break a neck, more than what's applied during adjustments. I still didn't want my neck adjusted (as a job perk) that way, I asked for the activator to be used. But I'm always tense, so my neck muscles were and having someone pull on them in that condition is not good.
YES!!.
HERE WE GO!!
THE EQUALIZER 3 will be out on Blu Ray this November!
I highly recommend you watch it.
I am waiting for the dvd release date
Your mention of Chloe Grace Moretz in your recap of the first Equalizer film sparked a memory of another intense performance of hers: in the horror film Let Me In, she did a great job playing a vampire - she made the character both very sympathetic and terrifying, not an easy combo to pull off.
Pedro Pascal also plays one of the lead characters in Narcos, one of the cops who is after Pablo Escobar. Also a great performance.
i saw E3 in the theaters and i was surprised at how much i liked it. i tell people it was like 'john wick' meets 'anthony bourdain' lol. sicily is a character in the movie.
20:49 "like, traitor music?" 😆
I think the word you're looking for is "episodic", which is when each episode is a standalone story (eg things like SVU, Star Trek etc.) contrasted with "serialised" which is when there's a larger story played out bit by bit over the whole season (eg Breaking Bad, Game Of Thrones). "Procedural" refers to a show in which the "procedure" makes up the content, typical in cop shows where the cops finding evidence and tracking down the bad guy is the subject of the show.
I'd love an SNL run of movie reviews! Caddyshack, Stripes, Fletch, etc. All those original SNL stars in their primes in the early to mid 1980s.
Another great one.
Bit of geek science here. Flour DOES burn like that! bit it has to be airborne & in its smallest particles. For a fun little experiment to test this, & THIS MUST BE DONE OUTSIDE! AWAY FROM FLAMABLE ITEMS!!! Take a candle & a tea spoon of flour. Light the candle & from a distance of a metre or so away, blow the flour onto the flame, if not just above the flame so the flour falls down a little.
Hope everyone is having an amazing week & much love to all from here in the UK
26:09 I can never hear "high ground" without thinking of that Star Wars movie.
I'll have you know that in anticipation for Hayden Christensen becoming Anakin I watched his entire run on the TV show... wait for it... "Higher Ground". 😊
I remember them testing flour explosions on Mythbusters :)
Nice job! Much of both of these were filmed on the north shore of Boston in my home towns.- East Boston, Chelsea, Everett & Lynn. The scene, where Denzel jams on the breaks and kills the would be assassins with the knife, in his car, ends on the corner of Chelsea & Bremen street. That's where you'll find one of the best pizza joints in the world - Santarpio's! It's right outside of Logan airport, so if you ever find yourself in Eastie, ENJOY!
15:48 Detective Sam Schmitt
There is TV series of equalizer starring Edward Woodward in 80s
Great movie! Love your reactions!
Flour in the air is a serious explosion risk provided it is in sufficient quantity. Medieval mills worked dawn to dusk as there could never be a candle or any form of spark as the mil would explode like a bomb.
Glad to see you both see this. Kind of more vicious kills overall I think, but also I agree more suspense then action, but that's fine to keep things mixed up foe this sequel I feel.
I love the mentor relationship in this about as much as the first one, maybe slightly more because there was more interaction and discussion, and I loved that scene after he took Miles from the gang, powerful and his acting strength was masterfully executed.
Great watch! I hope you both see some more great Denzel movies like John Q.
Have a great day/night, and thanks for another great vid!
I'm surprised the gang members didn't come after him. They knew Miles knew him.
@@w1975b if they knew miles was seeing him then why did one of the say who is he and did they have confused looks or there faces like they did not know who he was or cause they were surprised he came in the like that
Movie Recommendation : Training Day, Denzel got an Oscar for it. The Scene at 18:02 gives me Alonzo Harris vibes. 😎
Awesome! - Btw, there's two more Bourne movies to react too. Please do.
of course the equalizer was a tv show back in the day with Edward Woodward (of wickerman fame).
21:19 "hopefully she's not dead!"
sam showing a positive attitude.
I got a chuckle out of the laugh reaction to the takeaway advice of buckling up when killing from the backseat. :D
yep, flour does that
20:33 safety first. _always_ wear your seatbelt.
Pretty much any type of powder is combustible. The finer the powder the greater the effect
A great Denzel movie is Deja Vu...among many others
Yes flour is highly flamable in large quanities.
Life is good. But it could be better! lol Just not for Pedro's character. He done Effed up.
Edward Woodward played McCall in the tv series. He's the CCTV guy in 'Hot Fuzz.' He also played Callan, in a late 60s, early 70s UK tv show of the same name, about a govt assassin. The 1974 movie ''Callan,'' based on the first ep [ and original novel ] is well worth a look.
36:19 That's because this movie and the Queen Latifah show was based on a show from the late 80's called 'The Equalizer'.
Pedro played a very flamboyant villain in the second Wonder Woman movie, and he was a kind-of villain in a recent movie with Nicolas Cage. Even when he plays bad guys they are always interesting so whenever you see him in anything now its like another commenter said, a 50/50 shot whether he's a hero or the bad guy. But your going back and forth on him in this movie had me laughing.😅
Another great reaction guys, thank you! 💜👍
I keep changing my mind on which one I think is better. The original or the sequel.
Hope you two are having an great and awesome day ❤
The Equalizer was a british series in the 70s with Edward Woodward it was fabulous
Robert McColl is a former CIA operative xx
Great movie and reaction! TFS
Great reaction. My favorite line was after Robert burst into the drug dealer/gangbanger's apartment, Robert calmly telling the gangbanger, "Sit down. Sit down. Sit down. Sit down," with the gun pointed to his head. That was more hilarious to me than , "I'm your father. Your momma just didn't tell ya."
The word you're thinking of, I think, is 'anthology', not 'procedural'. 'Procedural' refers to mostly cop shows that detail the procedures used to solve crimes.
Not only did she not push the button, Robert also saw his cell phone screen was off when he was making out he just got a text.
I enjoyed your reaction. I hope you'll watch more movies with Denzel. He directs and acts in THE GREAT DEBATORS and ANTOINE FISHER is an awesome story. Think :Good Will Hunting" with Denzel playing the role of the therapist.
I saw EQUALIZER 3 eight* times in the theater. I might try to go back one more time. I can't help it. I want to marry it. It's in Italy so it's automatically way better. 🥰🤤 I can't wait 'til you guys get to it. 🙏🏼
*Ok. One time I had to leave 5 minutes early to catch the bus but it still counts. 😁
How do you not think it's personal when his old friend died on this film it was personal before what he did with the knife in the back of his head
you guys should make a list for Denzel movies, there are alot of them that are really good ones.
Awesome I love it
18:18 makes me tear up every time
Yeah, flour in the air is very flammable.
Pedro was not as brutal as the first films villain but for much of this movie his character is ambiguous. Pedro is the bad guy but I think we have a built in assumption he wouldn't be. I think you guys experienced the doubt of his motives making this a better movie.
Look at the front picture sitting on the piano or shelf in the assassinated couples apartment. Doesn't that look like Pedro Pascal as a child?
Great reaction. I also enjoy these movies. I would also recommend Guy Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes films, starring Robert Downey Jr. & Jude Law.. I think you and Sam would enjoy them very much. Perhaps you could consider putting them on your "Period Action/Adventure" poll. Best wishes to you both and greetings from Nigeria. ~ KJ
Yes flower will do that
Any fone powder will ignite and explode thats why its very important when you have a kitchen fore not to jist throw a bunch of fine powder onto a flame. Its best to smother a fire out instead of throwing anything at it. Cover and smother as beat you can.
Great reaction as always! The Queen Latifah Equalizer seemed very generic. Check out "Person of Interest" instead.
This movie has way more story and emotion than the first
But the first one is better
@jesseowenvillamor6348 that is absolutely subjective
@@ImpeccableZentertainment No. The first one is just obviously better
@jesseowenvillamor6348 alright neckbeard, this conversation is done cause you obviously have the mental flexibility of a trump supporter
