While I concur with the gist, there are some languages that aren't pronuncable by
humans but which nonetheless appear on film. Wookiee and R2-D2's system of
beeps come to mind, for instance, although I doubt either of those have an
underlying conlang system (as opposed to "whatever the sound editors came up
with at the time").
