No doubt. But I think he was referring to T1, not T2.

TPM did a lot more than just build on the work of T2. Things like the texture modeling and clothing animation they did for the CG characters were new concepts for a live-action film. And VFX supervisor John Knoll was quoted as saying he had no idea how they were going to do a lot of the shots in the film when they started pre-production.

I guess in the end all I'm saying is that TPM is much more deserving of being on that list than ROTJ.
