Idea: Making the Bengalass critter look like the Thanator
Blizzard is well known for paying homage to other sci-fi sources. What do people think about modeling the Bengalass critter after the Thanator predator from Avatar.
Obviously, it wouldnt be an exact copy but rather a unique Blizzard spin on Thanator concept. A reimagined Bengalaas with six legs, large, deadly and sporting an aggresive headpiece. Blizzard could even go the nine yards and say the Bengalass have a connection with the Protoss which would explain why they vanish in the same way the protoss die.

The funny part is that I did compared StarCraft with avatar after watching it ^^
They both look preaty familiar, it might work. Though most critters should get a remodel and a defined story in the starcraft universe, the same way as the zerg "past lives" where discribed.

I don't see why not. The military in Avatar had a lot of Terran-y stuff, why not borrow from each other.

I also got an "Aiur" vibe from Pandora. I like it.

I think Blizzard could really get allot from Pandora especially the buaetiful and deadly theme. I would love to play missions with exotic plant life that swayed like sea anenome and ferocious jungle creature that ambushed your troops.

Blizzard can create it's own universe which it is doing, it doesn't need to rip it off of movies. Paying homage and taking stuff from movies are two totally different things.

Dude I got so many SC vibes when I watched that movie.
— nerve chords from the back of the head
— interconnecting energy/nerve system
— alien hunter race of superior strength and stature
— human vehicles similar to banshees and dropships
— wildlife similar to that found on Aiur
