USA Today has an article up about the recent success for 'Hero' and the domino effect of interest for the Kill Bill saga...

Meanwhile, Tarantino's own martial-arts action saga, the two-parter Kill Bill, is proving strong on DVD. Kill Bill Vol. 2 has been the top-selling DVD since its release Aug. 10, and its success has reinvigorated sales of Kill Bill Vol. 1 and other Tarantino DVDs.
The movies were modest successes at the box office Vol. 1 scored $70 million, Vol. 2, $66 million and they are solid hits on home video. Kill Bill soundtracks also are selling well.

All that bodes well for Tarantino's dream to bring a full-length Kill Bill to theaters. A film that combines the separate movies could happen as soon as early next year.
"It's not just like slapping the two together," he says. "There are slight changes, and it has an intermission, like a '60s movie."
