I didn't really mean who knows more about film, like theory and aesthetics, etc, just that Quentin seems to be able to remember all kinds of dialog and shots and facts and who did what, kinda like an film encyclopedia. Martin Scorcese probably does know more about American films but Quentin Tarintino has an extensive knowledge in especially foriegn and obscure Asian Cinema, with a very large personal collect of prints. Then again, I may be wrong, I'm not privy to Scorcese's print collection.
