Lucas wrote the drafts for all Star Wars movies. He thought up the universe and everything that was great about. Many other great minds made the movies but Lucas was the main guy. While not including the originals is one thing but don't critize the making of the Special Editions or future Ultimate Editions. Lucas attempted and failed to already do many of the Special Editions changes in the original versions. People often complain about Greedo shooting first but what about matte line deletion, more thriving cities, better creatures. So many changes that made the movies so much more alive. I never heard either of the directers of The Empire Strikes Back or Return of the Jedi complain about the Special Editions. Films evolve they are a changing growing process.
