Well, in spite of the fact that you skipped a level (which I hadn't even thought of until Martin said it), I did enjoy this video. There weren't too many great one-liners (and I believe nothing will ever beat "I am become stuck, destroyer of worlds"), but it was still a funny video. The one line in there that I found quite funny was the part at the end where you go "It's not Thoth, it's Yoda".
Now, despite the tip that you should use that terminal as the exit, it might have been better if you had actually gone to try and use the first terminal, because I believe it changes once you've completed the mission. Indeed, there's a whole section of the Marathon Story Page devoted to that terminal.
And if you're noticing a similarity between that terminal and some of the text from Eternal, then you are clearly on the right track.
Vale,
