Battlefield Earth - Phyclo's Knowledge
At the part where Terl shows Johnnie that he has capture his girlfriend and he threatens to blow a human's head off but Ker does instead. -Throughout the entire movie humans are referred to as "man-animals" but at this one point Terl refers to the humans as "humans" when he says "silly humans". Was there some part in the movie that we didn't see where he learned the correct term and if so why did he continue to use the term "man-animal".

I noticed that as well, but this is what I thought was the story: They knew that they were 'humans', but preferred the term 'man-animals' because 1. We are mammals, they are not, and 2. They like to refer to us as 'dumb animals', not as technologically advanced as themselves.

Yeah, and also the fact that the humans learned how to fly leer jets in weeks, or even days? Doesn't it take years upon years of army training to learn how to control those things? And also, how could the aliens survive with such big heads? Man, they must have been made fun of at school as kids! "Hey, Melon head!" Eh,...

Leer jets? I think you mean Harriers. Leer jets are small business class planes, not military attack aircraft.
