    We've seen the cinematic trailer. 8)

    and we know what the cinematics will be like in starcraft 2 campaigns. it will be a pleasure to see.

    so anyway any views and ideas you want to see in cinematics?

    heres mine in randoms orders(campaign). and i hope at least one of them makes it. lol

    1. we all know heroes like kerrigan are strong but we still dont have any ideas how they actually fight in battles. so for kerrigan. kerrigan killing 3 marines easily and FAST. first kerrigan gets hits or blown away by a siege tank (with 3 marines suppoting it). After a guardian(or any other zerg unit) dispose of the tank, kerrigan gets up without any scratch and smiled on one of the marines. she then quickly jumps to one of the marines and use her wing to pierce the marine right on the head, the 2 marine quickly retaliate but kerrigan suddenly jumps between the two of them, crouch, and fired spikes on them! and as she stood up she saw zeratul... and you know whats next.

    2. i wanna see jim raynor in cinematics fighting like the guy in halo 3 trailer. raynor quickly runs and jumps and kick a hydra and then summersault backward and blast the hydras head off with his gun. 8) nice!

    3. zeratul plus 30 zealots against 10000 zerglings. yeah! like in the movie 300! the swarm of zerlings comes rushing down from a downhill slide while zeratul and his 30 quietly awaits. zeratul suddenly jumps to one of the nearest zerling and cut off it in half. as zeratul stands again, at the back of the zealot we see shining colors about to break. 100 dark templars suddenly appears. then back to zeratul holding his psi sword up. then CUT. 8)

    4. yes starcraft is not starcraft if there are no epic war battles. and this is my idea for the ground battle. the setting is in a snow place field where we can see mengsk climbing an uphill cliff with his ghost bodyguard. he stopped and waits. then we see the top view of the zerg swarms on the opposite side. then a close up of lurkers digging, then thousands of mutas arrives as the camera moves up. we can finally see thousands of hydras and (100,000) zerglings swarming. and then back to mengsk he provides the speech. battlecruisers(plasma torpedos ready) comes, and vikings transforms, siege tanks switches to siege mode and 50 thousand marines line up and start marching. then all hell break loose.

    5. we see scvs actually building thors! as the terran units prepares for war. (a little boring. but maybe for in game cut scenes, i just want to see the thor being built. ^^)

    6. what else? oh yes the airships battles. artanis driving a phoenix and destroying a single battlecruiser by himself.

    7. mothership destroying the zerg overmind etc. or mothership uses the black hole on mengks fleet. haha.

    8. yes, zeratul in berserk mode fighting hydralisk and zerlings with slo mo zoom in zoom out camera movements 300 style. zeratull will own leonidas in this shot.

    9.. a beat up tychus finlay wrestles 3 hydralisks. 8)

    10. a ghost climbs or jump up a colossus and brings it down. 8)

    theres so many to think of. im tired. and sorry im kinda biased here about the protoss and terrans and not the zerg. well at least we see kerrigan kicks azz.

    Wow, very nice and detailed post. :powerup:

    I really like the idea of the Terran and Zerg battle when they all meet up and all hells break loose. Heres hoping that Blizzard has something similiar to the ones you mentioned because honestly, I think all of them kick ass.

    Good ideas!
    3,4,5,7 and 10 are my favs. I especially like 4 though.
    I would really like to see some up-close of the Protoss and a Protoss base also. That would be cool. I hope they give us a cinematic like that before the game comes out. We can always hope.

    Re: Starcraft 2 Cinematics Views and Ideas.

    We have seen similar (but not as elaborate) in the 2 demos. In the Protoss there was a short one with all those zerglings popping up and rushing the zealots. And in the Terran one when the thor used its special attack on the command center.

    Most of those are way to much to realistically expect but I do enjoy stuff like that.

    Re: Starcraft 2 Cinematics Views and Ideas.

    i want to see a big terran force attack a hive cluster.
    The scene starts looking at a red sky, then the camera zooms out to reveal a huge Thor, supported with a couple of siege tanks and maybe about 10 marines. Thors cannon powers up and obliterates a huge chunk of zerg building, with bits of creep and biomatter flying off in chunks. The ground begins to shake as an ultralisk emerges from the back of the zerg base and stampedes into the Thor, completely breaking it. The ultra then steps on a couple of marines just for fun :p

    Heh, 300 with Zealots.. awesome. Personally I'd see Tychus and Raynor screaming with their machine guns blazing bringing down anyone that comes near, that's just me.

    awesome, 1,2, and 3 are the best ones. raynor should be shooting some hydras, then he runs out of ammo and goes berserk on the hydras, lol.
