What wasn't 100% clear was if the opening scene was done on purpose or was it an accident (his death). Then the ending of the movie, she is going on to see where the engineers came from, which leads to the thought of THE answer of who created us may never be answered, as someone would have created another, and so on and so forth. But that leaves it wide open for a sequel.

I also want to know why they were trying to wipe out earth after they created it. That partially makes me think that the creation of earth was an accident, or they created earth "because they could." Hopefully the next one will put all of that together.
I would think they intentionally did it that way too, except the cowriter on it was the guy who created lost which had the same friggin issues of lazy writing. I think they certainly have no problem with a sequel, but it probably won't be Ridley so you are going to end up with one of those phantasm or highlander contraptions when they are done.

Anyways, it looked awesome and so did the aliens in it, but it left way to many things hanging and didn't make a lot of sense in spots.

For instance? Why did she have to be impregnated, but the big alien had it done to him the same way that john hurt did in the actual Alien? Just a lot of stuff like that.
