I actually felt very dissapointed at the wasted potential this film had. 2 of the 3 Predators were killed way to quickly and the face offs between the 2 breeds were much too short. I can sort of understand the teaming of the woman/Predator as it was drawing influence from one of the comics but I take your point about it being a little unbelieveable. I think one of the main problems is the Paul Anderson is such a hack director and watching AvP one wonders if he actually saw any of the other films or just decided to ignore the 'rules', such as the Alien gestation period. Newcomers to the film series would have enjoyed this more then hardcore fans.
AvP2, whilst not a great film by any stretch certainly improved on the first, finally people actually got to see what they wanted, the Predator kicking 10 shades of shit out of the Aliens.
