I can't blame the Strause Brothers for everything, because first of all it is the guilt of Walter Hill and the other Producers who have decided for this guys. It's unbelievable that all of this current Producers of AVPR also once were involved in the original Alien and Predator Movies!
When i heard that two sfx-artists will direct the second part, it was clear that this is getting even worse than the first AVP. It seems that they learned nothing about the mistakes from the past. There are a few sad examples of earlier special-effects people who also thought they can bring it as a director:
Spawn by Mark Dippé, Starship Troopers 2 by Phil Tippett, The Fly II by Chris Walas and some other more.
Maybe next time, in 5 or 6 years, when it's all water under the bridge, they choose a really talented director, who makes a totally new beginning of it all with a higher budget of 150 million dollars, a fascinating script and some really strong actors.
I want a huge difference between the movies like it was between Batman & Robin and Batman Begins!
