Two of them were already said but I'll repeat them.
1) Night Elf dancer in the top right of the cantina in the Hyperion.
2) On "Piercing The Shroud," where your reinforcements arrive, if you go all the way north then you'll find a Murloc Marine.
3) If a Battlecruiser engages into battle while your screen is off of it, the unit goes, "it's a trap!" to alert you it's in combat.

Well, definitely have to mention iPistol and iCruiser (or iBattlecruiser, or iBattleship, I'm not sure). The iCruiser is on a bilboard in the first mission.
Then there's the Terrible, Terrible damage, that even appears in the challenge missions if you kill a lot of at the same time using the High Templar storms.
And of course, Grunty The Murloc Marine.
One of the things that really made me giggle madly was in the lost viking arcade. "HE DOES NOT LIKE YOU!!!" *in flashing red letters*
Oh, I can't believe I forgot the "It's a trap!".

Repost from an earlier thread:
The armory in game has a giant "Bay 12" sign. I believe that it's probably a reference to Alien, but with the chief engineer having a few quips about drinking and mining (and a stout appearance to boot), I like to think it is also a nod toward the site that hosts Dwarf Fortress. Entirely possible, there is an undeniable reference to it in WoW.

"Terrible, terrible damage!" made me laugh.
I also liked the Ghostbusters reference, as well as the out-house taking off.

2 for you:
1) The portrait face for the Spartan mercs is the face of the lead SC2 developer
2) When you first find the Diamondback in single player, you may notice that it's the "Cobra" from the alpha release of SC2 which was cut before the beta. When it shows up the armory guy says: "Oh my god, that's a Diamondback! Thought that baby didn't make it out of prototype!"
:-D

/its a trap!
seriously though you know that you see animals walking around well you can click on them then in the 3d unit closeup there's the animal

Those were in the original Starcraft, but yeah, those are pretty cool. I suspect the video would have been incredibly long if they had included the quotes if you keep clicking on the various units. Then again, those aren't hard to find so maybe they don't count as Easter eggs, even if you don't own the game there are always videos on the internet of them all. I don't know what the Raven does, but I already like it because of the way it talks and the numerous AI character refs it makes. If only it told you to bite it's shiny metal exhaust pipe I would've bought this game already.Jaredin said:
on the super secret mission "piercing the shroud" you can exit the secret laboratory on the landing pad and scout the rock that is outside the building. you'll be able to see, not go to, a small rock cluster with murky the murloc marine dancing and shooting up a storm.
also in that underground mission "belly of the beast" right before you enguage battle with the large queen zerg, you'll be given a side mission to save some marines from an ultralisk. if the ultralisk breaks the rocks the marines say "oh no...game over man. GAME OVER!"

1) Murloc Marine in "Piercing the Shroud" just after the 2nd reinforcements arrive (he's on an asteroid in the background), Metroid in a tank later in that mission.
2) "TerribleTerribleDamage" also happens to be the god mode cheat
