Although he isn’t necessarily a household name, James Mangold’s extensive résumé speaks for itself. Works like Walk the Line and Girl, Interrupted have captured Oscar statues, while efforts like Logan and 3:10 to Yuma have enjoyed universal acclaim. And smack-dab in the middle of awards season, Mangold drops another heavyweight contender for audiences to enjoy with this weekend’s arrival of Ford v Ferrari, a high-octane drama that speeds to the Best Picture race on the wave of audience and critical support.

A dicey business dealing between the pair of high-profile automakers, Ford and Ferrari, leads to a battle for racing immortality in the 1960s. Ferrari has dominated the renowned 24 Hours of Le Mans race for years, but Henry Ford II (Tracy Letts) will stop at nothing to defeat them. Therefore, he enlists the aid of car designer and former driver, Carroll Shelby (Matt Damon), the only American to ever win the race himself, who believes that the hot-headed and stubborn driver, Ken Miles (Christian Bale), is the only man capable of beating Ferrari.

Ford v Ferrari proves to be one of 2019’s most appealing cinematic experiences for a multitude of reasons. For starters, the script is a magnificent blend of hearty comedy and compelling drama that bounce off one another all while developing wildly interesting and likable characters. Matt Damon and Christian Bale are gifted a brilliant and timely story, but it’s their attention to detail and dedication to craft that help take Ford v Ferrari to a whole other level. While it’s a little surprising that more hype hasn’t surrounded these performances as we approach the stretch run of awards season, I wouldn’t be shocked if at least one of them sneaks away with a nomination. Bale may be facing some stiffer competition with both of The Irishman’s supporting actors and a slew of other high-profile supporting turns to measure up against, but he also gives the slightly stronger performance. Damon is fine in his own right, but the character of Ken is so fascinating and Bale knows exactly how to capitalize on good writing. And not only does the script develop the framework for strong central characters, it also touches on some underdog and anti-establishment themes that naturally resonate with today’s moviegoers. In some instances, Ford v Ferrari regrettably re-gifts cookie-cutter moments of familiarity that soften an otherwise outstandingly executed film. Yet, James Mangold and company rise above these schematic similarities to Oscar contenders of the past by delivering what’s arguably Mangold’s best effort to date and one that should make a serious splash during this year’s awards season.

GRADE: 4/5

Alamo Drafthouse once again proves why it’s the best theater chain in America with their upcoming, and one night only screening of a noir version of “Logan.”

Drafthouse and 20th Century Fox teaming up to show the film as a noir is a brilliantly appropriate event that both pays homage to the genre as well as giving fans one last chance to see Hugh Jackman on the big screen as Wolverine. This one-time screening event will be followed by an exclusive, live streamed Q & A with director James Mangold across the country beginning at 8 PM EST on Tuesday, May 16th.

The black and white version is a stunning send off to the most brutal telling in the X-Men cinematic universe as Logan and Professor X’s stories come to an end.

Also, Los Angeles fans will also get the chance to see “Logan” slash through the big screen as Alamo Drafthouse and 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment co-present LOGAN NOIR with American Cinematheque at the Egyptian Theatre. Tickets for all screenings are available now at drafthouse.com/logannoir.

“It’s an absolute honor to bring this unique and very special chapter to Alamo Drafthouse,” said Tim League, Alamo Drafthouse founder and CEO. “Being able to do this with the film’s creator only adds to the gravity of the event and we plan to make this an epic evening in all of our theaters.”

Attendees in every location will be able to participate in the live discussion with Mangold via Twitter using the hashtag #AskAlamo.

Attendees are requested to wear only black and white clothing and as a parting gift commemorating Logan’s final ride, all theater guests in monochromatic attire will receive an exclusive commemorative event poster.

Just in time for NYCC, Hugh Jackman has just tweeted the first poster for the upcoming Wolverine movie simply titled ‘Logan’.

screen-shot-2016-10-05-at-11-37-50-am

Now that we know the name and an imagery of a young hand holding Logan’s hand, this will surely feed the flames that the final movie might just be loosely based on the ‘Old Man Logan’ comic book story line. The 2008 storyline featuring an old, washed-up Logan in the post-apocalyptic wasteland of the Marvel Universe. In this story  line, the Hulk has taken over part of the land with his gang of inbred children that live to make Logan’s life miserable. Obviously things will have to be altered because of the different  character ownerships.

The director James Mangold followed up Hugh Jackman’s tweet with two of his own, releasing an official image of the poster and a readable shot of the 2nd page of the script. After reading the page, seems to kind of confirm at least an Old Man Logan will be seen, but nothing about the plot of the movie.

‘Logan’ pops his claws one last time on March 3, 2017.

The Wolverine premiered in July 2013 to solid reviews and a strong box office, and just in time for the holidays, is being released to blu-ray (Dec. 3rd) and digital HD (available now). The DVD contains an unrated, director’s cut version of the film that is being referred to as The Wolverine Unleashed.

The extended version does away with the PG13 rating (and the pesky MPAA regulations that go along with it), adding some more gore, some f-bombs (for a total of three) and a subtle darkening of the Wolverine’s character. As the Wolverine has always been one of Marvel’s darker characters this isn’t necessarily a bad thing.

The film’s plot remains mostly unchanged from the cinematic release, which is a new take on the story line from the 1982 limited series by Chris Claremont and Frank Miller. The blu-ray will ship out with an alternate ending (maybe we’ll actually see Wolverine in his trademark blue & gold?), a documentary film titled Path of the Ronin, a set tour and an audio commentary in edition to the extended cut of the film.

The Wolverine breaks the Marvel/Comic-book hero/tent-pole movie mold by not being about saving the world, or the universe, or even the galaxy. At its heart, the film is about discovering ones self and one’s place in the world–offset by scenes of heart-pumping, metal-clashing, arrow-flying and knife-throwing action. While some leaps in relationships and motivations are somewhat….convenient, The Wolverine offers up a conflicted hero, strong women not needing to be rescued (at least not all the time) and a satisfyingly heroic story. The ending is still somewhat problematic (though the extended version offers up some much more thrilling fight sequences in the end that should leave Wolverine fans cheering) but since Mangold and Jackman are both in talks for a sequel, hopefully that will be resolved in the next edition.

The Wolverine is available on Digital HD now from the official website, and will be out on Blu-ray on December 3rd. It stars Hugh Jackman as the Wolverine, Tao Okamoto as Mariko Yashida, Rila Fukushima as Yukio and Hiroyuki Sanada as Shingen Yashida, and was directed by James Mangold.

Geeskscape Score: 4/5

Briefly: It’s not officially official yet (Director James Mangold is still in negotiations), but it looks like we’re set to get another The Wolverine.

Deadline reports that the film is now in the works, with Mangold in talks to write the treatment for the film (and likely subsequently direct, since he did a pretty bang-up job on the first).

No information on the film’s storyline has been revealed, but we’ll be sure to share it as soon as we hear more!

Another day, another new clip from The Wolverine.

The clip (along with all of the others) is action packed, this time showcasing a battle between Logan and Shingen. It doesn’t impress me as much as yesterday’s World War II clip did, but it’s still heads and shoulders above that first, ridiculous train clip.

Take a look at the new clip below, and let us know what you think! The Wolverine hits theatres on July 26th!

Based on the celebrated comic book arc, this epic action-adventure takes Wolverine, the most iconic character of the X-Men universe, to modern day Japan. Out of his depth in an unknown world he faces his ultimate nemesis in a life-or-death battle that will leave him forever changed. Vulnerable for the first time and pushed to his physical and emotional limits, he confronts not only lethal samurai steel but also his inner struggle against his own immortality, emerging more powerful than we have ever seen him before.

Following the train and funeral clips from earlier this week, Fox today debuted a third clip for James Mangold’s highly anticipated The Wolverine.

This one is easily the best of the three, taking us all the way back to World War II, when Logan saves a very particular soldier. The clip looks great, and brings back some of the excitement that I lost after seeing that awful train scene.

Fox today debuted a new featurette for The Wolverine, this time spotlighting the female ronin, Yukio.

This one is short and sweet, clocking in at just under a minute long. That being said, it does feature some cool new footage of the character, as well as explain exactly why Yukio is doing what she’s doing.

Following yesterday’s ridiculous first clip, Fox today debuted another scene from the highly anticipated The Wolverine.

This one is leaps and bounds ahead of what we saw yesterday, and features a fight breaking out during a funeral. The action and effects all look infinitely more polished than what we’ve already seen, and there are definitely some impressive shots in this latest clip. I certainly hope that the bulk of the film looks closer to what we see here than the physics-less mess that we saw yesterday.

Fox today debuted the first clip from this month’s highly anticipated release of James Mangold’s The Wolverine. We’ve seen pieces of this scene in almost every trailer so far, but somehow, seeing it all together makes me a little less excited for the film.

Directed By James Mangold, The Wolverine hits theaters in 2D & 3D on July 26, 2013.

We’re just a few weeks away from the highly anticipated release of The Wolverine, and Fox has just launched a new featurette promoting the film.

Titled “A Ronin Story”, the featurette begins by explaining just what a Ronin story is, and subsequently why The Wolverine fits in the genre. The video features plenty of exciting new footage for the film, and I actually found the scenes shown off here more exciting than any other preview that we’ve already seen.

I wasn’t overly excited for The Wolverine when the first trailer debuted online, but the film’s current marketing (plus those amazing sumi-e posters) are all really amping me up for the feature. Watch the new featurette below, and let us know what you think! The Wolverine hits theatres on July 26th!

Just yesterday, Fox released a beautiful sumi-e The Wolverine poster featuring Jean Grey. Today, three more characters got the sumi-e treatment. The latest posters feature Harada, Mariko, and Shingen, and just as before, I’d love to get every single one of these up on my wall.

If the film turns out half as good as these posters, we’re in for a treat with The Wolverine. Check out the new images below, and be sure to let us know what you think!

I’d love to frame and mount every single poster for The Wolverine. The incredible sumi-e art style has impressed me since the very first teaser image, and today’s Jean Grey is just as awesome.

It’s unknown just how prominent Famke Janssen’s role in the film will be, but it has been confirmed that she will appear in a flashback sequence. The actress was a great choice for the Jean Grey character, and I can’t wait to see some new scenes with her.

Fox has just unveiled the first TV spot for The Wolverine. I have to say that I wasn’t overly impressed with the film’s first trailer, but each subsequent preview has proved that this could be one of this Summer’s coolest movies.

A new Japanese trailer has been released for James Mangold’s The Wolverine, or Wolverine: Samurai as it’s called in the trailer. It’s mostly a re-cut of the previously seen trailer for the film but does feature some small bits of new footage. Check it out below.

Spinning out of the events of X-Men: The Last Stand, Logan (Hugh Jackman) travels to Japan where he falls for the beautiful Mariko Yashida (Tao Okamoto) to the grave displeasure of her father Yashida (Hal Yamanouchi) and her half-brother, the fearsome Silver Samurai (Will Yun Lee). But this isn’t Logan’s first trip to the Land of the Rising Sun or his first encounter with the Yashida clan. Based on a screenplay by Christopher McQuarrie (The Usual Suspects, Valkyrie) and Mark Bomback (Live Free or Die Hard, Total Recall )and the comic book by Frank Miller and Chris Claremont.
