Yeah, I know Tarantino has been an important factor in ensuring some little-known films see the light of day, but I was thinking of Hero (or, to use the phrase on the trailer 'Quentin Tarantino presents Hero) when films are marketed using his name rather than the director's.

It's a double-edged sword and I suppose we just have to grin and bear it, taking the rough with the smooth and being thankful some obscure films are released because Tarantino has championed them.
