This.

I pointed that out to my friend and he was all "nah, I didn't make that connection at all."

It was way too obvious to miss.

And ok, so we'll argue that the final scene was not the origin of the xenomorphs. Yet, as depicted in the film; we can view it as a reenactment of what occurred thousands of years ago when engineering an aggressive weapon-like life form? Only now inflicted upon the Prometheus crew after their discoveries? So the space jockey's have just been running around the entire universe terraforming other planets/moons and, let's say they got something right (or horribly wrong) when they either first perfected the xenomorph's or the parasite facehugger species? Ugh, the age old what came first? The chicken or the egg? So, what took place on LV-426 can be viewed as perhaps maybe the ultimate achievement of these above mentioned hostile alien species? Rather than some gigantic primordial facehugger in Prometheus, they evolved the facehuggers down into smaller, arachnid-like creatures, gestating in pods?

You know what? Fuck it. I never even liked the idea of another species engineering the xenomorph's. I liked entertaining the possibility that they spawned from their own natural evolutionary processes, not unlike the cockroach, only a cockroach on the ultimate bath salts.
