The best parts of the old Judge Dredd movie!
Having recently escaped Aspen penal colony, Rico makes his way back to Mega City 1 and rewires this old military mech to function as his personal bodyguard.

He really got a lot of mileage out of that dead guy’s cigar
These are the comments I come here to read.
Out of everything you noticed....this your comment???? I tip my hat to your Genius....

I often speculate on that cigar.
My lame reasoning is that plausibly the store owner had at one time 'synced' the Robot to himself. Like Rico is initiating in this sequence. Grabbing the cigar might give the robot pause or confuse it long enough for him to become its commander. I might be stretching a bit.
Maybe he's a smoker.
I love how the ABC Warrior moves its jaw when speaking, while it clearly doesn't form the words with its mouth like humans. Such a needless, yet cool function.
Not mentioning the war cries when it's shooting... totally unnecessary, yet cool. :D
It genuinely enjoys what it does. From the old comics, they have quite rich personalities.
Sometimes you just want racing stripes on your car. Haters might tell you that they don't actually make it go faster, and who knows, maybe there is a slim chance they're right, but they are cool.
kind of like stallone himself
Ultrasound detecros of life forms.
I love how the robot seems like a piece of heavy machinery, making noises like a giant old, crusty trash compactor and venting air pressure and with realistic looking hydraulic systems....like it could actually exist.
"Like it could actually exist" Scale up a Boston Dynamics robot. Not difficult and capable of doing backflips and tumbling while it shoots you.
The pawnbroker was Ian Drury
Well it was presumably an animatronic, so it probably did move it's limbs itself.. Just was immobile.
@@GudrezBilly Animatronics don't move their limbs by themselves: they are essentially huge marionettes with mechanisms inside, each one requiring a different operator to function. Some might use remote-control servomotors and hydraulics, others are purely mechanic and rely on strings and gears. The ABC Warrior in particular was animated by 9 people off-screen.
@@thermonuclearcollider4418 Thats amazing, thanks for sharing!
Built to fight and survive the wars of the future against "Atomic, Bacterial and Chemical" warfare. A.B.C warrior was the best of the Stallone movie.
I want a movie where ABC is the protagonist and the enemy is man!
Curien247 there was a comic with the abc warriors as the protagonist, it was awesome.
The square jaw and slanted mouth makes it look a bit like Stallone.
eh.. I used it for "Entertainment" when I was 16.. this was way before the internet was popular.. :P
James Liu 2000AD
Love the rumble and pure aggression when the ABC robot says “Waaaaar”! It nearly sounds excited or happy it’s going to fight.
It is!
Yeah, its kind of heart warming, war is its only purpose.
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH WITH DA BOYZ
Sounds like a coke belch to me
@@WindiChilliwack Necrorkz in this case lol
After years .. I still can't forget this ABC Warrior. It impressed me so much when i was a Kid.
Google ABC Warriors Khronicles of Khaos 😎
The shop owner seemed like such a nice guy. Great way to set up a villain.
And really stupid....
that guy hord weapons and by tha ABC warrior he have collectet and his non fuction was only one open wirer have most liket stored also other not legal stuff.
and that in a Red district area.
Short. He should have one armed bodyguard that guard him. One bodyguard to massive to fit into a normal door frame...
@@benjaminschiel3339 Well mate, it's the slums. He shouldn't have opened the door, but the customer seemed rich. He isn't exactly selling for rich customers and advanced weaponry. In the movie, most of those weapons only do damage at close range.
Also, the judges probably know how those ABC warriors were deactivated, or deactivated them, which this guy have no idea about. Judges are very rare in red districts.
Ye, he was stupid. Probably just some poor guy, finally hoping to earn some good cash.
You know the shop owner is Ian Dury as in Ian Dury and the block heads a 1980s punk band
@@billjane5522 No, I didn't know.
@@billjane5522 What a Waste.
I like these cyberpunk blade runner style movies, it ages like fine wine
@Főfasírozó which in many cases can be indistinguishable since they're both sciencefiction-based dystopian future genres. Its like... Science-fiction and science-fantasy. They share A Lot of the same elements, to the point they're almost synonymous with one another. Yes, they have distinct differences, but those differences can be so small
I think it was because it was all from the same set designer.
Play yourself some alien isolation
Yup (hic)..
also super mario the movie was cyberpunk, waterworld, escape from NY and LA , I love 90s movie
I like how it seeks commander's approval, and seems pleased to get it.
That's because abc warriors are sentient but shackled by thire programing he probably enjoyed haveing a purpose after being useless foe so long
@@jackstewart2258 Is that canon? I don't know much about the comics.
@@jackstewart2258 He even got exited when he heard about going to war
@@Innomen yes it's cannon when the wars ended all the abc warriors became quite depressed until hammerstein (the main abc warrior in the comics and the bace of the robot in the movie) was given a mission to go to Mars he and the others jumped at the opportunity
@@jackstewart2258awww, thanks, I didnt know that. The scene is even cooler now.
I've heard that CGI took a huge leap forward in Avatar by better recreating subtle details like how people's eyes focus and track. Practical effects like this robot soldier still give a better sense of weight, presence, and stompy mass, though.
Practical is always better
avatar made huge leaps and bounds in CGI, no one else goes nearly as far though as its super expensive and time consuming. cinema today is disney/marvel merch grabbing repeat bullshit and netflix series that ignore source materials and are using the IP to gain views they have no want to make good well researched and produced shows anymore save a few.
Ggi is cringe
The best marriage of the two would be all practical when possible, with minimal CGI to improve or hide flaws. But CGI is cheaper, so...ugh.
@@dariopasquino10 Not really, CGI is several times cheaper and more cost effective than practical effects. Problem is that it creates a disconnect with the audience (we can tell it's not there, or it's interaction is a bit off with everything else). Practical effects give you something tangible and physically there interacting with it's environment, but it can be a bit wooden in how it moves and interacts. Jurassic Park took care of that issue by using CGI to complement the practical FX.
Dredd 2012 really needed one of these.
It was replaced by those 3 M134s
“You can collect them as long as they are non functional”
Hot wires the thing in 2 seconds
I love how it coos like a baby after pleasing its master by summarily murdering half a dozen judges. It makes zero sense, but it's absolutely awesome and the practical effects of the ABC robot are absolutely impeccable!
One of the best robots in a movie ever. Totally terrifying 🤖
The boss robot from Virus or Cain from robocop 2 are pretty good too.
The start up procedure sound effects are absolutely intoxicating…🤤
Judge Dredd '95's city, atmosphere and aesthetics was more faithful to the comics.
Judge Dredd 2012 dialogue and acting was simply far superior.
If only there was one movie that took the best of both.
Karl Urban's Dredd in Stallone's Meg-One would be the perfect Judge Dredd movie.
The production design and cinematography in this film was amazing and it's a shame that the film was so badly interfered with by the studio and Stallone. This looks infinitely better and more tactile than the lazy and generic GCI futurescapes of contemporary sci-fi.
Can't beat practical effects genuine props and miniatures they just don't age the same CGI does
what do you mean by interfered? What went wrong?
@@Blobb2013 Short answer: They wanted to turn it into a typical 90's action movie. And Stallone didn't want to wear the helmet the whole time.
@@tanall5959 i don't blame stallone for not wearing helmet, but the script was the main issue here. it was badly written.
They captured the look and feel of the Judges and Mega-City One wwaaayyyy better than the Urban version, this often looks like it came straight off a page in the comic.
Unfortunately they made it in to a generic 90's Stallone vehicle.
Robot says, "Waaar", I'm thinking 'Shit's gonna get real'.
I saw this in the theater with my parents when it came out. I was 11. My reaction was the same. I'm like, "O snap."
WAAAAGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
This incredible setdesign and so little use of it. The robot would have deserved way more screentime.
The art department totally nailed the aesthetic of 2000AD with this flick, too bad it was wasted on this sorry take on the source material. At least we got Urban's Dredd to fall back on.
It was allegedly solely shit due to Stallone going full prima donna
Well new dredd just stole everything from Raid.
@@Jimoshi1 New Dredd was in development before Raid was even an idea...
This movie would have been a lot better without Rob Schneider's character. Not the actor himself but just eliminate the buddy sidekick, then again, it was the 90's and that was common.
I like both movie's. but I have to admit, the new dredd movie is lit af!
Assante was so good in this he single handedly saved the movie.
Screw the haters, I love this damn movie, even when I first saw it in theaters
I doubt people hated this much, it was so silly it was awesome
But nothing would be made like that nowadays. GRIM DARK OR ELSE hurr durr
No screw the comic fans, their weird obsession with the source material is so stupid like any normal person gives a shit
OK, just imagine this for a second - this production design and atmosphere combined with the direction, story-boarding and characterisation from 2012's 'Dredd' and you'd have a pretty sick movie...
Why? This movie was way better story and character wise
@@MGrey-qb5xz no it was not. Dredd never takes his helmet off where others can see. Sly's Judge Dredd was disowned by 2000AD
@@MGrey-qb5xz lol
@@toomanyaccountssorry for the old comment but did Stallone really get disowned by them 😅?
both fans and creators disowned the sly version. Stallone ego got in his way@@jacobwhitley3767
these things are the reason physical props are king!
this on the big screen when it powered up was intense
For a clunky, utilitarian machine, the robot has very expressive eyes and displays an impressive degree of personality.
Rented this from Blockbuster in the mid-90s as a kid...to this day I still think about the ABC Warrior and just how haunting and chilling it is. The movie may have not been the greatest, but this scene and the ABC Robot's design is legendary.
Check out the Khronicles of Khaos
I saw it in theatres as a kid... To this day I have no idea why my mom took us to see it. Or maybe I don't want to know.
The practical effects, props and set pieces are all still so amazing to look at
Armand's badass in this movie! No CGI robot here... it had character and Mr. Assante played off it perfectly... well done.
I saw this film at the cinema, when it first came out. I loved the production, and Ian Dury is a legend R.I.P mate.
I love it when the ABC warrior takes on the judges and just mowed them down with heavy machine gun fire
As a kid, that robot was terrifying and super awesome.
I loved this scene as a kid. Was one of my favorite robots as a kid. A close second would be the Johny 5 from short circuit.
Now I kinda want a series about Johnny 5 and the ABC robot becoming friends and shit.
@@justindunlap1235 that would be a epic movie. lets see, Johnny 5 died in the last movie, but i say they got him on a shelf somewhere in megacity 1, and they revive him by a accidental lightening strike ;)
I'm soooo glad they canceled the Short Circuit reboot.
@@Keuryllian me too
@@justindunlap1235 Johnny refuses to team up with him. Apparently his mother was a snow blower.
This is such an under-rated movie. It captures the vibrancy and larger-than-life style of the comics perfectly. The effects are brilliant, not a single frame of CGI to be seen. And how cool is it to see an actual working ABC Warrior !? That thing scared the life out of me when I was a kid. Anyone remember Hammerstein and Ro-Jaws from the comics ?
yes, in amongst the 2000 AD mags, i used to treasure as a kid.
not so much underrated as hamstrung by Stallone's face.
If only the writers of the Karl Urban Dredd movie had access to this one’s money and artists.
Google what "under-rated" means. Bonus points if you learn how to spell it.
@@twisted_nether373 It's a perfectly cromulent word. Please permit me to express my most enthusiastic contrafibularities for your insightful comment.
I was born in 1989... When I saw this the first time, it gave me the real chills like nothing else ! How I miss the feeling...
No matter how cringe the move was, the reference to ABC warriors is too cool for words
The A.B.C. Warriors ( yes..plural) deserve their own movie!
ABC looks so pleased with himself at the end.
That is because he complete a mission.
skynet: so that is where our missing terminator went, we really need to reprogram our time machine and re checked the destination
He looks a little like a T-800 or a T-750
@@drakeevans8042 actually closer to a T-700 variant. but one someone designed to look kinda like Arnold in the head.
T600 look-a-like
No it actually looks the most like a T-400 out of all the Skynet units. Search it up, they're practically the same design just that ABC Warrior is bigger and has more of a "face".
Drake Evans My name is Dead Evans
The world needs an ABC Warriors movie
I must admit I didn't like this movie, but I loved the ABC Warrior.
So it says on wiki:
"Hammerstein is the only ABC Warrior to appear in film, making a cameo appearance in the 1995 Judge Dredd movie."
i love the mouvie
Then wtf do you like?
@@MGrey-qb5xz Replying to a 7 year old comment? Fine, I'll play. Like I said, dumbass, the ABC Warrior.
I love this design
Claudio Cucca designed by Kev Walker
+Paul Little thank you for the information !
Love the way they introduce this awesome robot then barely use it for the rest of the movie.
Honestly, if you just went by this clip, Judge Dredd seems like it's a pretty good movie. Love the ABC warrior's design and practical effects and Rico (at least in this clip) seems like a cool bad guy.
Such a believable world, the sets are amazing, it looks like the future or somewhere alien so much, the cars make it so unfamiliar as well, and the robot was just amazing too.
"happy birthday" what an awesome line!
This movie literally so ahead of time!
What a great decade for movies. They don't make them like this anymore
ABC robot was the best part of the movie. It was pretty sick!!👍👍
This incredible reference to 2000AD was one of the best things of this movie.
Ahhh yes...the 90s back when we were still getting a feel for the cyberpunk aesthetic
The way it screeches whilst blowing those cops away with its knuckles, then a few seconds later giving its owner a puppy dog look! Epic contrast!
i love that abc warrior. Just the shape of him. just an awesome robot.
As far I've heard Chris Cunningham was involved with the design and animation of the abc warrior, which kind of explains why it is so memorable.
And Mean Angel.
Dredd : yours... if they ever get it to work.
Rico : hold my wire.
The practical effects made this amazing
CGI can't hold a candle to this.
Yeah agree. CGI holds a fucking supernova compared to this crap.
It can. The sad thing isn't that CG is inherently bad, it's that dumbass directors and producers want to use it for roles where it just doesn't hold up, usually due to it being cheaper.
@@Servellion its actually not cheaper though lol. All the people you need to pay, and the cost in rendering... It actually gets expensive fast. even compared to practical effects.
Movies and production rely so heavily on CGI because of its obvious potential, how quickly it advances, and the fact that we live in a digital age
@@bloodydove5718 do you know how is the relation now? I think obviously in 1995 CG was way more expensive than today, but is today more expensive to do CG or build a robot like that?
@@ThanksIfYourReadIt Yeah plastic and elastic looking cgi is a lot better than a real heavy robot animatronic... lol.
Overall the film was pants, but it's still a guilty pleasure for an old 2000ad fan like me. The production design, visual effects and little moments like this make it worth a watch or two.
2000 AD's ABC Warriors & Nemesis the Warlock are the most awesome comics ever made. Dredd too, of course. These are why I love Warhammer 40,000. There will never be anything like this... Ever.
ABC warrior:
ABC warrior:
Rico + Cigar + “The Red Wire”
*WAR*
The crazy part is the thing was still armed with munitions ....
So much hate for this film....?
We the Danes love it and most of us still thinks its the best Judge Dredd movie of them all, and its AMAZING! The action, comedy and story! top notch. Wish there were at least two more with the same characters.
When I went to Ireland in 1995, this movie and Batman Forever was playing side by side. My friends and I chose to watch this one.
The irony is that the ABC Warriors in the comics were weary of war and wanted to live in peace.
Yeah, I think in this movie, Rico rewires Hammerstein's cpu/brain to make him into a mindless killer. Ian Dury tells Rico he's not operational, so I'm guessing he was damaged super bad. Rico resurrects him, but it's like a zombie version of Hammerstein from ABC Warriors.
ABC Warrior: Still a better actor than Brie Larson.
hahaha yeah you can tell he got happy when he heard the word war, such emotional depth and the ability to broadcast it
Maybe they should of gotten the ABC warrior to play Captain Marvel 😂
Tommy Very true, just look at him turning his head to the side like a puppy clearly hoping Rico will praise him for shooting all the Judges.
Seems metal has a better range of emotions than the plank of wood they made Brie out of.
Samoan Gimli That would probably improved the acting in that movie at least tri fold.
Virgil Blue Brietard Larson would have the “emotional 😭 range of a teaspoon” as quoted by Hermione Granger to Ron Weasley (Order of the Phoenix)
I'm not gonna lie... I TOTALLY want one of those!!!
Same here. Maybe Boston Dynamics could make one...
Say what you will about this movie. But the production value, mechanical, creature and visual effects were and are still top notch. I remember taping the behind-the-scenes special for this movie. It blew my mind how much ingenuity went to making it, even the (slightly more developed) early CGI effects were great. I should watch this movie again and try to find that making-of special.
Owned of 2000AD tells a story, it's out there on UA-cam.
2000AD staff went to see this film in the cinema, this bit rolls around, and there all look at each other: "which of us sold them the rights to ABC Warriors for this?"
The answer was none of them. The film makers had assumed that they had the rights to everything in 2000AD to use as they wished...
That robot reminds of Arnold, especially at 2:54.
Yet another great film, long before its time.
Modelled on Hammerstein. Leader of the ABC Warriors in the 2000AD comic back in the day. Also featured Ro-Jaws, Mongol, Joe Pineapples and others.
This film was very visually accurate to the 2000AD universe. Would have been better if they didn't try to put so much humour into it. Ended up like a future version of Tango & Cash.
The little head-tilt with his "hmmmmm " was pretty adorable
He's just the ultimate Best pal isn't he ??
The judges outfits look pretty cool actually.
I forgot all about this that was some seriously awesome stuff!
They need this in the next Dredd movie
This movie looks new I'm going to have to watch this again...
Love the ABC warrior attitude when it says "War"....
I'm surprised Rico didn't hit Geiger with a Rhythm Stick.
Hit...MMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
That bot is so
👿BAD ASS!👿
Still Love it.👍
I love the way it practically purrs after killing. For all its flaws (mainly the presence of Fergie in the film at all, the fact that Sly took his helmet off and the terrible non-practical effects) this movie is still a lot of fun. I still think 'Dredd' smokes it, though.
I don’t care what anyone says, Stallone is the one, true Dredd!
This movie had a surprisingly high production quality for a 90s movie. I mean the audio mixing and all is top notch.
That scene looks pretty cool; I need to watch this ...
A nice little reference to the ABC Warriors comic. Even at the time most of my friends didn't know it was from anything other than this movie though.
"You can collect ABC warriors if they're non-functioning." Ricco opens him up and connects two wires together... fully functional!
Everyone here is sleeping on predicting vaping in the 80's
00:12 - i clearly hear russian voice which says "we have best girls. Come and see."
"Лучшие девочки в городе. Заходите, посмотрите."
I loved that 'bot!! The slanted mouth gave it an ominous look!
I don't know why people didn't watch the new Judge Dredd movie. They are both amazing pieces. Now it seems there will be no new Judge Dredd movie at all, or movies in this universe, after it flipped.
This movie had more character to it, 2012 is just some edgy shit
@@MGrey-qb5xz No. If anything this one had more edgyness to it. But it was good, regardless.
@@Kareszkoma I watched and liked both, but the original is superior in every way.
@@adamarzo559 No, not necessarily or at all. I wouldn't say that. They are different movies, different lead in plot, different pov. The new Dredd is more so a discovery of the universe. Look at the villain for example or the people. It's not just an action movie, it's an introduction.
The old Dredd were more so like an adventure, action type. Sylvester Stallone did a great job. The 80ies decor also does great. But as for the universe, I barely get to know anything. Anything at all. There were teases like the ABC Warrior, their guns, the gangs, council, or some of the outsiders. But that's all.
It very heavily depends. Still, I think, that even if you find the old one much better, rightfully so, the second one still should've done a lot better.
why abc warrior sound like evil window 98??? xD
Ma boy i wanted that on Christmas back in 90s
Damn practical effects are simply beautiful.
Surprised the Abc warriors haven't got there own film yet
We nearly had an animated show.

i love how this nonfunctioning machine comes back to full life by connecting one wire
I love how its batteries still work after 60 years of sitting in a "non functional state". I can't even use my phone for longer then 2 hours without it croaking but this hunk of junk has a full charge after sitting from the end of WW2 till today!
The tech of this robot seems feasible today. Shocked Japan hasn't made a Gundam of this.
Having read teh comics, I find it really neat they included this guy, who only appears in a short story before he sells himself to the store owner sicne his mission was over.
Robot in 1995 movie production looks more real than the T-Juan Thousand in Terminator Dark Fate...
Nice to find clips from the better Dredd.
One of the best thing about this movie.
@2:28 Genesis of steampunk. The original theme easy as ABC, current subscribers make Steampunk Great Again!!
thats not steampunk
Steampunk is set in Victorian times.
Give it another 20 years, it's almost guaranteed we will start seeing bodyguard robots. Also increasingly weaponized prosthetics, and I expect, weaponized custom cars.
