Tarintino made this as a tribute to his childhood, if you will. He incorporated everything he remembered from what he saw around him when he was just a wee one. Note the Western feel of Bill, the cowboy. The samurai feel of Lucy Lu. The Shaft deal with Vivica Foxx. The Astro Boy incorporated with the anime portion. I loved the Kato masks on the Yakuza, which is a reference to the Yakuza movies he watched as a kid and apparently his love for the Green Hornet (corniest hero ever) as well as Bruce Lee. Just look through it, its nothing but nerd culture rolled into two movies.
