Hold on
There are two issues. There's the lack of the originals-release, and that's stupid of George, etc etc.
Then there's the prequels being terrible. With the prequels, George made the movies he wanted to make. And everyone yelled at him (even before the SE-only-released issue). Why would he make more movies like that if everyone yelled at him for it?
So what he says is true, from a certain point of view.
