Okay, I know I said I would leave it to that, but I felt like I was obligated to answer some of your arguments.

You know very well what the reasons are. I told several times why he would win. Being cool has nothing to do with it. I only look at the facts, and the facts are that Venom is faster, more agile, meaner, more durable, has a very strong web, a spider-sense and is so strong that I seriously doubt Fetts armor will hold. And even if it will hold, Fett is not entirely armored. Even the web alone could give Fett serious trouble ! Do not argue about this, please.
And I would also appreciate it if you didn’t put words in my mouth. Where did I say Venom is cool ? Hah, I only said Boba Fett was cool !!

and on that note, yes, Vader did respect Fett, it is stated in the books that he did.
Sigh… yes, in the books that were published AFTER the movies… giving some characters a whole new (and sometimes far fetched) background… maybe it’s me and maybe I didn’t explain it very well.
And Fett, if he was an amateur, was the one to track down a damaged Millenium Falcon.
Come on, be honest, was that sooo incredible hard to do ? Someone had to track down the Millenium Falcon for scenario reasons.
why didnt any of the other bounty hunters? you ignored that question.
There’s nothing to ignore. Boba Fett pulled it off, the others didn’t. Good for him, but again, will that help him against Venom ? And don’t say he’s a real genius because he can follow a damaged ship.
Luke-Leia relationship: to make that first connection between Luke and Leia
Huh ? I will tell you a secret, but since you’re a Star Wars fan (I’m too, a bit) you’ll probably know this one already : George Lucas was so afraid of having sex or insinuating sex in the movie(s), he taped down the breasts of Carrie Fisher, so they didn’t move while she was running… So don’t tell me that a prudish man as Lucas wanted a somehow incestuous relationship in his child friendly movie ! It can only be explained by assuming GL didn't know they were brother and sister. Other explanations are way too far fetched.
Obi-Wan-R2-D2: since when did Luke mention R2-D2's name?
To be honest : don’t remember, but I do remember that Obi did not even remember having a droid. So how do you explain that ?
Star Wars title: Hm...i dont see "Episode V" or "Episode VI" on ESB or ROTJ...they all say Star Wars. And "Episode IV" isnt on A New Hope either.
Yes it is. When the first movie was re-released, the full title was :”Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope,” It was in 1981 or 1982.
Vader-Luke: Vader never once saw Luke's face or even had a clue that he was his son. Nobody mentioned to Vader that Luke's last name was Skywalker.
Well, in that case, the force isn’t as strong as we all thought it was. Vader really should have sensed it was a special somebody, but he didn’t sense one goddamn thing. His old enemy, an old men he hadn’t seen for a very long time, yeah, that was no problem for Vader to sense (in a very large space station), but when he was pursuing his own flesh and blood, the Force was obviously taking a nap.
General-Vader: he refers to the thousands of years the Jedi had guarded the Republic, not to the Jedi themselves.
No he wasn’t. Look at the scene again : he was somewhat complaining against Darth Vader that Vader put too much confidence in “that ancient religion”, which is of course the Force.
and why do you keep saying that Fett died? Do we physically see his corpse? No. So nobody knows for a fact that he died. And if you watch ROTJ again, you'll notice that Fett's primary target is Luke due to the fact that he's a Jedi.
Says who ?
And while he's aiming for Luke, Solo says "Boba Fett?! Where?!" and turns around and accidentially hits Fett's jetpack. That could happen to anyone who's attention is elsewhere.
Sure, but still, you can not call that scene, and the scenes that follow with Boba Fett, as a glorious BF-moment. Far from it. Remove his helmet and his cool pose and you have your everyday stormtrooper.
George Lucas had trouble finding money for the first movie, and 20th Century Fox was convinced it was going to be a disaster. You really think George Lucas was thinking about the background of the characters and about the prequels and sequels ? I very seriously doubt it !!
And yet, you all make it seem it was part of master plan. It was planned a bit, yes, but no as much as you think.
