I really hope Mangold is aiming for a Japanese Noir with a Comic-Book Hero as the main character. He even posted on Twitter ten films which inspired The Wolverine:

1. Chungking Express (1994)
2. The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976)
3. The Samurai Trilogy (1954-56)
4. Floating Weeds (1959)
5. Black Narcissus (1947)
6. Happy Together (1997)
7. 13 Assassins (2010)
8. The French Connection (1971)
9. Chinatown (1974)
10. Shane (1953)

I hope this will actually mean something.

I used to doubt this film when Aronosfky left but Mangold has totally convinced me that he has created a brilliant film. I can't wait to see this.

I have a feeling it will be the best Xmen film so far.

My bad should have said "I doubt". I am hopeful it will be great.

MOS trailer is right up there with the best of all time IMO.

Mangold has had a few duds in his career, but films like Walk the Line and Girl, Interrupted proves to me he's more than capable of handling a Superhero film.
