Robot Jox is a 1990 post-apocalyptic science fiction film directed by Stuart Gordon and starring Gary Graham, Anne-Marie Johnson, and Paul Koslo. The film was co-written by science fiction author Joe Haldeman. The film's plot follows Achilles, one of the "robot jox" who pilot giant mechanical machines that fight international battles to settle territorial disputes in a dystopian post-apocalyptic world.
After producer Charles Band approved Gordon's initial concept, the director approached Haldeman to write the script. Gordon and Haldeman clashed frequently over the film's tone and intended audience. Principal photography finished in Rome in 1987, but the bankruptcy of Band's Empire Pictures delayed the film's release in theaters until 1990. It earned $1,272,977 in domestic gross, failing to earn its production cost in theaters. Robot Jox received negative critical response and little audience attention upon its first theatrical run, but it has more recently attracted some critical praise and influenced elements of popular culture. The film has been released on various home video formats, most recently on Blu-ray in July 2015.
I bought the DVD of Robot Jox and realised it didn't have the trailer, which was one of my favourite trailers from back in the day, so eventually I decided to reconstruct it from the DVD footage. This was a bit harder than I anticipated as there were a few shots which I couldn't find in the film at all(the bits which are worse quality here) and that many of the shots are very quick shots and between the 2 fights in the movie the order in the trailer can go 1, 2, 2, 1, 2, 1, 1, 2, 1, 2 etc so it's a bit of work to go searching for them. And unfortunately the only VHS trailer I could find(I'm sure I have it on another tape) had a bit of rolling, which can be heard in this as a short bit of static.
It is post-World War III. War is outlawed. In its place, are matches between large Robots called Robot Jox. These matches take place between two large superpowers over disputed territories. The main character Achilles is a pilot in one of the large Robots. The plot revolves around him and a match for the state of Alaska.

In this futuristic tale, conflict is resolved through war -- but not between humans. Instead, the world's superpowers are represented by gigantic, robotic techno-warriors piloted by Achilles (Gary Graham) and Alexander (Paul Koslo). For this bout, the stakes are high: Whoever wins gains the right to Alaska's bounteous land, not to mention its natural resources. But a last-minute kink adds a new opponent to the mix, and all hell breaks loose.

Stop-motion precursor to "Pacific Rim" by Stuart Gordon and Joe Haldeman, whose constant clashes over script, content and tone produced this muddled, delayed and unsuccessful movie about a post-apocalyptic future where political disputes are settled via mech-battles. Sounds fine to me.

After numerous failed attempts with forgettable movies, the gang finally settles in for a robot double feature of Robot Jox and R.O.T.O.R. This episode was shot on a dark and stormy night, and much alcohol was consumed in order to properly come to terms with the madness that is R.O.T.O.R.
