Lol, well atleast he was able to fire his gun back, once.

Now I actually kind of want to them to start up that music whenever I click on the building.

I'm modding my sc2 to do this. At least, if blizzard releases custom sounds on everything like they did in sc.

So damn funny...lol! Although he should have made the Marine and Barracks blue to compliment Tychus.

I laughed my ass off at the end when the music started again. :)

Serving the Dominion through suicide.

Kind of like the US economy.

Poor little guy, he’s trained to die. And the icing on the cake is that there’s even a drone outside waiting for him.

It would've been good had the kid, you know, at least borrowed his parent's tripod to film the SC bits. Or just got some cheap movie-edit program and have a go with the saved replays.

As it is, nice concept, shitty execution.

I laugh every time I see it at the end. Poorly executed? Most definitely. But it wouldn't be the same without out that drawn out pause, then.... *trumpets blare*

Heeheh!! Kinda pathetic way to die! :p The Hydras aren't even interested into destroying the Barracks :D.

Version three is the best.
Ultralisks weren't as funny as Zerglings.

Indeed, number 4 was the weakest, even without all the camera movements.

As one of Blizz's little inside jokes, they should play a bit of that music when you click the Barracks (faintly, in the background - including whatever indicator sound they'll be using.)

Speaking of which, what is the weird music that plays when you click an Academy? (with the guy screaming) is there any significance to it?

I do not feel sorry for the marine. Not even in the tiniest bit.

I found it mildly amusing.

Would fit great as a many-click quote of the barracks.

Acording to lore it can be two things, a strange zerg scream or a man during brainwash hardcore levels(forgot how it's called)

Re-socialization? The process they use on marines/firebats/etc?

Interesting, but I wonder why the music tho...and what it is...?

Everytime a barracks is queued to the max, the music should play for the entire duration of creating the marines.

The Academy sound is a classic film death cry, like the Wilhelm Scream.

The whole sound D.S.? the whole? I know the guy screaming is what you say (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilhelm_scream),
however there's also a music alongside the cry, is there any info about it? or any source from youtube you could post that shows where it comes from?

I used to listen to it many many times... sometimes the adjutant would move her head alongside with the music... I liked that...

about SC music, also wonder what the music at the beginning of the opening cinematic is...

Hmmm......the Academy scream sounds more like a TIE fighter :)

...but yes, the music....sounds like a school marching band or something.

Doesn't sound the same as the Wilhelm scream to me -

Actually, it seems to be a variant of the Wilhelm scream: the Gut-wrenching Scream (AKA as the Howie scream "Youraagh!")

HA! - Holy crap, that's totally it - the music must be in the background of whatever movie they lifted from. Off to You-Tube... :)

the music is precisely what I'd like to know where it came from or if Blizzard just made it up and combined it with the Youraagh! scream!
BTW more Youraagh! (V 2.0)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_818rcC0DA and an explanation about it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBXkfb7Ok0o
And also about what I posted earlier... the opening cinematic has many things that make me wonder: i.e. the music at the very beginnging... or the ship that fires upon those terran... is it a ... mothership? or a special super carrier with void ray heavy bombardment capabilities? (the Ghantrithor maybe?)

I do remember an interview mentioning that the MS (and the Planet Cracker beam) is based on the ship and attack beam from the opening sequence - I'll dig around for it.

Yeah, that scream is in Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance too. Everytime I heard the sound it made me think of the SC armory.
