I would say the alien came first then rolled over and went to sleep.

This poll is flawed. Drones pictured cannot lay eggs. Only queens can.

It's Cameron's fault! I swear! (Have you seen the director's cut of Alien)?

This looks like as good a poll as any for me to rant in. HMV, who recently relocated their online store to Guernsey, have now taken over a month to fail to dispatch my copy of the Alien Quadrilogy. So what should have been a birthday present will now be a late Christmas one (if they ever dispatch it) ...

First there were...

AWESOME OBSTACLE COURSES!

(Edit): (First of all, I just had to say that once... I'll quite saying it now). Anyways, to be serious though, in the question of the chicken and the egg, assuming Darwin's theory of evolution is correct, the egg is first, as the breed of chickens evolved later than animals started "using" eggs. Of course in the matter of alien, it has to be the alien, since the egg had to be developed, but the 'aliens' were always since the day they started living on/in another planet. However, if we're discussing the actual 'Alien' in the movies, we cannot say, as we do no know the evolution of the species. Nor do we know if it has had any. Of course this is all based on the assumption that Darwin was correct about his theory, which we cannot be certain of.
