Hunter's language.


Haven't really decided whether I like this or not still too early to tell it is interesting to me the one thing that I find a little Annoying is the clicking Hunter's language starts to make me wonder if the good old days where shows actually developed a spoken language for aliens like what was done with Stargate and Star Trek in the past I hope the good old days are not gone but the clicking is certainly starting to get under my skin a little bit.

I know what you mean, it's starting to irritate me too. Just finished ep5 and when the hunter boss at the end does the clicking sound it kinda annoyed me. What did they tell the actor - 'Move your jaw up and down really quickly and we'll add the sounds after', he just looked stupid.

I haven't quite figured out yet whether the clicking are made audible for the viewers benefit, and in the show they are meant to be supersonic; that is, occurring in frequency range beyond human capability.

Despite the clicking feeling cheesy, I like the concept of the clicks being visual data rather than linguistic in nature.

You've made a good point I was also thinking it may be a clue as too their natural form being like a insect it's funny sometimes how you get caught up on a thought and then bam your think why didn't I think of that before and it changes your whole outlook.

Does anyone remember an OLD SCIFIC space opera called " SPACE: Above and Beyond"? These Alien's 'clicking' language sounds just like the "Chigs" on SAaB.
