when I first heard that I was like...wtf?
so when I saw the trailers, I got confused...how is it that a pretty much completely chinese movie be credited to tarantino?
could you enlighten me?

Actually, I can enlighten you. Simply put, Tarantino is a fuck. To elaborate, he has a production company that is a sub-company of a big studio...I think it's Mirimax. Through this company he tries to bring a bunch of foreign movies to the states. Mostly Asian but there's other stuff in there. Most never see the light of day, and the ones that do usually only get arthouse play. The two bigger ones, Hero and Iron Monkey, he slaps his name on and pretends he had something to do with them besides their arrival in the states. He also apparently thinks he's more important than the films themselves...always putting his name even before the title. It always looks something like this:

QUENTIN TARANTINO PRESENTS: Iron Monkey

Fuck him and all of his shitty shit.
