I was unfortunate enough to see part of "Universal Soldier" again the other
day.  I started thinking about the number of movies/stories about government
organizations creating synthetic super-men for soldiers and assassins.

In America:
	Universal Soldier - Jean-Claude Vann Damme
	Solo - Mario Van Peebles
	The Terminator - Arnold Schwartzeneger

There's an obvious trend through all of these movies:
Big seven foot hunks of meat who blow things up.

In Anime:
	Armored Trooper VOTOMS - Proto One
	Ghost in the Shell - Matoko Kusinagi
	Naomi Armitage
	Nuku Nuku

There's a completely different obvious trend here:
Short, cute women who blow things up.

I'm tossing this out there because I think it's a good point for speculation.
I'm sure I could use it in a fic somewhere if I sat down and thought about
it long enough.  I can't do anything with it for the moment, so if anyone wants
to take this and run with it, they're welcome

So we do a crossover, involving big, seven foot hunks of meat who
blow up short, cute women.

Wait, that didn't come out right...  ^^;;
