This was a bit difficult for me as Ridley and David have both proven themselves as filmmakers and have made brilliant movies, however, I personally believe Cameron is a bit more consistent in his streak than at least Ridley.
Quality over quantity is much better, I would rather wait five or even ten years for really good Alien or Terminator movie than watch some weaker version that comes out every year like a COD game and with just as much depth.
Cameron has his flaws however and one of them interestingly enough is that like Sil said, he
does raise the bar. Which means sequels will have a had time matching his film's success and will seem at worst, bad or mediocre in comparison to what Cameron did.. Alien3 has many issues but I think it coming after a film like Aliens did not help one bit.
Concerning Anderson, I think his heart is in the right place and he does have sound ideas but his execution of them is flawed, AVP could have been much better given just more character development, being more lore friendly, better creature designs and maybe not having the film as a pg 13.

It's weird people here prefer AVP:R over AVP.
AVP is better than AVP:R by far.
AVP:R is THE WORST MOVIE EVER of 2 Franchises by far.
Not sure if you are being serious or trolling but I assure you that the majority on the site (well presumably anyway) prefer AVP to Requiem anyday, there is even a vs thread about it.
