    On the hero mission to flood the nydus tunnels with lava, after killing the queen, the scientist says "she's dead jim"

    In the Day & Night mission when one of the marines says "I think I saw a movie like this"

    Many of the unit order confirmation reply thingy's are very good as well.

    I thought the lost viking one was quite clever, I liked the tauren one too.

    When you repeatadly click units you usually get great laughs, a feat of all blizzard RTs games.

    My favourite is the Thor unit, basically arnie quotes, its epic lol ;)

    The first line of the game "Hell it's about time!"

    The marines on trapped top of buildings with "Alive Here!" written on them.

    Seems like the Aprils fool joke Blizzard pulled with having Tauren Space Marines are real. Well the unit is anyways and can be found in game, during the Zero hour level!

    anyone see the metroid in the vessel tank in some ladder map :pac: also you can find a tauren marine in one of those tanks. (the 3v3 map)

    Top marks for subtlety and obscurity: In the voodoo scene, the background music playing is the music from the voodoo lady's hut in the retro game The Secret of Monkey Island :D

    Edit: Scratch that - I'm not sure it is. Very Monkey Island-ish, though.
