I may get flamed for this, but i can only speculate that everyone that thumbed it down and said it was cheesy and cliche'ish doesn't realize that in life, you do have to fight for things. And they are worth fighting for. Whether you're fighting for your country, or standing up for your little brother from the bully down the street. Whether you're helping a loved one through an addiction, or protesting the destruction of a rainforest, or trying to send relief supplies to a war-torn country, you do have to fight. It's HARD. It SUCKS. But it's totally worth it. That's why most of us get totally nerdgasm'd up watching this. It reminds us of the struggle in our own lives, a struggle that seems daunting and unwinnable at times, but because we love our family, friends, or our cause, we do it. That's why Raynor is such a simpathetic character. He's a regular dude, called upon to do great things, much like most of us are pretty "normal." Just sit back and enjoy. I don't ever get tired of "romantic ideal" characters when the treatment is done right. It is fiction after all... So you're suggesting that those who are not excited aren't because they got spoonfed everything in their lives and never had to fight for anything? Quite a theory you got there. I can say for myself that I don't much like the line, but not because it's wrong, but because it's so trivial. There are things worth fighting for. O RLY? Yes, there are, so? Yawn. There's just nothing original about it. It's all so ... generic. Like the guy above said, it's Team America without the humor. Would be nice to see something by 2010 that couldn't have been there in exacly the same way 1990 or 1980 (except the CG of course, which looks more like ... 2005). | ||

To the people who find it generic, it's video game writing we're talking about here... It's as good as it gets. | ||

People thumbs it down because the writing is worse than Catwoman, whether it wants to or not. There is no way the writing can be this horrid and the trailer-structure so dumb if it was meant to convey an actual message. It's a joke - a spoof. But it's a generic spoof that adds nothing to the hundreds of similar spoofs on this type of trailer. Therefore it's hard to get worked up about. It's reminiscent to "Meet the Spartans". Fortunately, the quality of the actual gamepart of the SP-game (the SP missions) is rumored to be quite high. | ||

It's not a spoof.. it's a composition of many of the game changing situations in the story brought together to give some insight into what is in store for us come tuesday.. stop speaking nonsense  | ||

But I do know that there is a war out there. It's a war that's in the heart of every man, woman and child. A war that many have fought and died for. Be prepared. This summer. Will blow you away. From the creators of 'a dude with an opinion', comes the biggest, baddest fanboy of them all. Some called him crazy. But he was just an ordinary guy trying to fight to keep the world he knew and loved from the brink of destruction. ~nerd rage scream~ "noooooooooooo" But there was something 'the haters' didn't count on. Sometimes, no matter the cost. No matter how large and insurmountable the goal. There's some shit that just an't gonna stand. "It's time to kick this revolution into overdrive" because "some things are just worth fighting for." | ||

"It's time to kick this revolution into overdrive" because "there are some things are just worth fighting for." What did you expect? Raynor revealing the secret to the meaning of life? Mengsk writing a book on philosophy of warfare? What messages and one-liners do you really want that would fit in this universe in this trailer better than others? the answer you're looking for is: NONE. Why? Because the "cheesey" lines as you call them are true... they make sense... that's why they are repeated for a reason... only they are repeated in the context in which they fit and appear.. e.g. in Starcraft 2... the lines tie in with raynors struggle.. and the entire previous story... Avatar... highest grossing movie of all motherfucking time,.... story isnt even half as good as starcraft... and there are one-liners all over... so what? Who the fuck cares? Who wants the main character to sit down in the midst of battle and go... "gee guys.. lets think this through abit... i'm in the philosophical corner right now... gimme some space y'all?" NOBODY :D Just roll with it dude... it's what people want... and it works... it's awesome... denying it is just arrogance and stubborness because your angry and jealous over the fact that you cannot seem to enjoy wht others enjoy to the same extent.. your life is SHALLLOW.. find your happiness  | ||
