Why did the character of Ms Wickers have to die? I was getting some sympathy for her as the movie progressed, and then she dies a horrible, pointless death. Wouldnt two people have had better chances at survival during further exploration in the Engineer's planet?

I cant find words to explain what I felt about the ultrafast pregnancy, cut-extract-staple surgery, and the inexplicable shape and growth of that squid thing that was removed from Shaw's body? I just hope the sequel wont have stuff like that.

What is the thing that came out of the Engineer's body going to do now?
