    • Trivia
      The two hookers were also drug users in an earlier draft of the script. However, Charles Band requested that this aspect of the screenplay be toned down because he thought the hookers as initially conceived were too vulgar and over the top.

    Robot Jox 2: Crash And Burn
    I really liked this movie, a typical B movie thriller of the early 90s

    There's one thing i need to point out tho

    In some European markets, this movie is officially called Robot Jox 2: Crash and Burn - here's the VHS cover - http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a277/lovegunner/203804745.jpg

    It's interesting that Charles band directed the movie (he was Robot Jox' producer) and that Robot Jox theme plays in the opening sequence of the movie.

    An official sequel?

    I've never seen that title anywhere else than in Europe

    Other than the musical theme, title and giant robot at the end, the movie doesn't have to do anything with it's prequel
