Out of the Blue

So I spoke with the lady from the tree doctor place yesterday, and decided that since the guys showed up Friday because a customer complained they left a mess, I would help them out by saying what a great job they had done for us. When I told her this was because they thought they were supposed to do a follow-up visit here, she was incredulous that they could have mistaken us for the house they were supposed to visit, implying that they'd have to be idiots to think so. So it seems my effort at getting them out of trouble did the exact opposite. Teach me to try and help.

Perhaps turning the bio-weapon black goo into incubators (or whatever) for eggs. And overgrowing the metal canisters and either turning them into resin or forming a big resin cocoon around them.

Most of the "plot holes" are people not understanding the movie, or complaints about Scott not explaining everything, which isn't a plot hole.

The cylinders were created by the Engineers to deliver the black goo. The eggs are laid by the Xenomorph.

...

Honestly, I haven't seen it yet. I'm just going by what a friend (in r/l) told me since he wouldn't shut up about the movie. One of the things he complained about was "the pod room" was filled with metal cylinders instead of resin cocoons. And thus was an epic fail.

So I was just using my imagination to fill in that hole, assuming my friend was correct about stuff. Figured if he was right, then aliens turning the cylinders into cocoons wasn't much of a stretch considering what they did to the place in (I think) AlienS

So, he kind of ruined the movie for me since I know the general plot now.
