Quote from: Wysps on Yesterday at 03:34:05 PMThe term exists, but I don't necessarily think that any Predator media is obliged to use it. I think it could be easily replaced by another word, especially in the movies where no character has ever been impressed to actually name them (besides calling them predators, hunters, etc.)
I would actually be interested to see to what extent the studio addresses such situations.
As far as I know, Yautja don't appear in any films.
If the Predator universe is expanded, it could be that they want to introduce the correct name at some point.
Will the studio then say, OK, we have the novels that already have that name in them, so let's just use it, or will something completely new come along and cancel the whole thing, so to speak.
(something similar could happen in the Alien universe)
