This is an Easter - but the units ARE AVAILABLE.

Yea it's an Easter Egg, but let's clear this up:
Blizzard had actually asked as many fan sites as it could find to not post information about Secrets/Spoilers. (infoceptor.com).

The cinematics feature the Hydralisk, Zergling, Marine, and Orc in Space (you know how it is, SC = WC in space).

After uncovering this cinematic, you should have figured that it was utilizing the WarCraft3 engine - any kind of spoiler for SC2 would have to be CG'ed and not in a game engine - they haven't started one yet.

After beating Night Elfs on Hard, you do in fact have access to these new units via the campaign editor. They may only be used in maps created with them in it.

If you're looking for a battle synopsis, they killed the hydralisks because they had already begun firing before the hydras could stop moving - you could also take into account unit size/damage and stimpacks. They could also have eliminated the lings easily with their numbers (those could have been other units too, *hint hint*).

They killed the orcs because they were on higher ground, allowing them to fire first and a whole lot while the lil' green dudes ran their way up hill. Their flamethrowers could also be considered as normal damage, but it'd be best to assume it was concussive (or explosive, whichever does 25% to small). Also, notice how many empty guns there are on the field - there were more marines that one could count on screen, so it's hard to say if there were only 8-9-10 at the beginning. There's my long -arse post.
