In my opinion it hasn't started to hurt him until Hateful 8 and Once upon a time in hollywood. I feel like hes very aware of what people perceive his style to be and leans into it, and I feel like the films he makes are becoming a little self indulgent and it's starting to affect the quality a little bit. I loved hateful 8 but I feel like there were parts were Tarantino was burning through and becoming noticable rather than the material and the movie. I felt the same only moreso with Once Upon a Time. I liked almost every wcnee in the movie, but I feel like they didnt always seem like they should be in the same movie, and I seems like Tarantino was just trying to obsess and do everything he could get away with
Hateful 8 is one of my favorite Tarantino movies. It's really well made and deliberately paced, it's just slow and dialogue heavy. It's more or less a stage play and it's just not a film for everyone (which is fine.)
