I believe that's about it. He was supposedly very upset at not being able to control Empire (maybe he was jealous that it performed better than Star Wars?). When it came to ROTJ, as far as I've heard he was pretty much the director. Marquand really didn't have much say, all he did was get thrown out of AT-STs
