They do, yes, but initially they speak about Riddick, and then about the Lord Marshal, both men. Fails #3.

Dame Vaako: I've always wondered, can an air Elemental fly? Now do me a favor. Calculate the odds of you getting off this planet alive... and now cut them in half.
Aereon: No, we can't fly. But we do glide very well.

That is dialog between them not referencing a man.

Agreed with the above, they hold a dialogue between themselves, even if it is somewhat threatening, which is only about themselves. This movie passes without question.

They talk to each other about the Elemental race, shouldn't that pass #3?
