I thought the ending was the BIRTH of the queen. That this is the origin of the Alien species ( I mean the icon Alien, not all those face huggers etc which are from those tar soup snakes)...

And thats what I was expecting to happen..him to have octopus shark attack him..shove the egg down his throat with him on smei coma..then he awakens and walks to the crashed ship or at least another..get in the seat..and then splat..the queen is birthed from his chest..then thats what Ripley and Why Dont You Freeze Him find in the 1979 flick.
