I think Raynor at least has Earned His Happy Ending.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04691270309993277160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4000895280655907241.post-60078184110231871072010-12-13T20:37:35.290-05:002010-12-13T20:37:35.290-05:00Could the 'Kerrigan in a tank' scenes be a...Could the 'Kerrigan in a tank' scenes be a flashback to Kerrigan's original time with Arcturus?<br />I agree that the fact that the lack of the Dark Voice element - much as I dislike that element - would seem to be a rather serious blow against this this movie's credibility as the actual (if unfinished) ending cinematic. That there is Blizzard involvement seems clear - Kerrigan's voice does sound like Tricia Helfer, and Chris Metzen provides the other two voices - but that doesn't necessarily mean that it is what it is purported to mean. <br />Of course... if it was from August of 2009 and was an early version of a scrapped WoL ending, that means that less than a year before Starcraft II came out (and the last delay was stated to be for balance reasons), they heavily rewrote the storyline. Considering that the campaign was supposed to one-third complete in June 2008... I certainly hope this was not a scrapped WoL ending if the dating is accurate.LordInsanenoreply@blogger.com
