Just saw the movie for a second time (I highly recommend that), and was struck (more so this time) by the fact that the only survivor has strong faith. Of course, there's David too (again considered a highly religious name). A few other points that seemed to be clearer to me this time around... The engineer has a look of shock on his face when the giant squid body-hugger grabs him... A look that implies this creature is not what he expected. Thinking back on the other Engineer's cryogenic tubes, the holes seemed familiar to us, like the size classic chest bursters would make. The protoxeno that ends up breaking out of the final body hugged Engineer would've left much larger holes in the cryogenic tubes. And lastly, something egg-like is born with the protoxeno. It could be a placenta... Or it could be the Queen egg incased in a yolk sack and our blue protoxeno is it's guard. Thoughts?

I saw the "placenta" as well, although it looks like a brain basketball almost Lol!

Well, I really don't think that was a 'Protoxeno.' There are already murals of the Xenomorph we all know and love. So I don't believe that one to be the 'first' xenomorph. Yet to stop being nitpicky, I just assumed that was its egg. Like the Juggernaut laid an egg inside of the Space Jockey, it hatched inside of it but continue to mature, then finally busted out. Could also be a Queen Alien Egg though. :) *EDIT* Some food for thought; Did anyone else notice how the Xenomorph on the mural has the same position as Jesus Christ on the Cross? Kinda makes me believe Space Jockeys saw Xenomorphs as their 'savior.'

That look of surprise is exactly what the engineers were trying to stop to begin with. I think they found out that humans can eventually through mutation produce creatures deadly to them...the engineer sees it and knows earth wasnt destroyed and his planet could now be in potential jeopardy
