GLASS Storming To $48M-$50M Opening Weekend; DRAGON BALL SUPER: BROLY Gets Off To An Impressive Start

Universal's Glass will fall just short of early expectations with an estimated $48 million to $50 million haul over the four-day holiday weekend. Meanwhile, Dragon Ball Super: Broly continues to impress.

M. Night Shyamalan's magnum opus, Glass, is roaring to the top of the domestic box office with an estimated $48 million over the four-day Martin Luther King Jr. holiday weekend, which is a franchise-best debut and the second-best launch ever for a film over MLK weekend.

The film reportedly carried an estimated $20 million production budget (without P&A), so despite an unfavorable critical response, Glass is already a massive hit for both Shyamalan and Universal and with little-to-no competition until Marvel's Captain Marvel hits theaters in early March, the trilogy capper should have a pretty good run through the end of January and into February.

While Universal had remained conservative with their estimates, projecting a $50 million to $55 million launch, rival studios and early tracking numbers were a little more bullish, suggesting the film's debut could potentially land somewhere in the $60 million to $70 million range.

Elsewhere, Funimation's Dragon Ball Super: Broly got off to an incredibly impressive start on Wednesday, finishing #1 for the day with $7 million. It's expected to bring in another $10 million or so this holiday weekend, which will bring its five-day total to $20 million plus, the best showing ever for a Dragon Ball title in the United States. Overall, the megahit has already collected nearly $70 million worldwide, including $32 million from Japan.

M. Night Shyamalan brings together the narratives of two of his standout originals—2000’s Unbreakable, from Touchstone, and 2016’s Split, from Universal—in one explosive, all-new comic-book thriller: Glass.

Following the conclusion of Split, Glass finds Dunn pursuing Crumb’s superhuman figure of The Beast in a series of escalating encounters, while the shadowy presence of Price emerges as an orchestrator who holds secrets critical to both men.

Director: M. Night Shyamalan
Samuel L. Jackson as Elijah Price/Mr. Glass
Bruce Willis as David Dunn
James McAvoy as Kevin Wendell Crumb/The Horde
Anya Taylor-Joy as Casey Cooke
Sarah Paulson as Dr. Ellie Staple

The Broly fill was amazing, maybe the best Dragon Ball film yet. The new lore was interesting, the new Broly is a huuuge improvement over the original (he has an actual personality), and the animation is beyond impressive. The fight scenes are by far the best in the franchise. Just something about them that feel...unrestrained. The fights have to be seen to be believed.

Glass was terribly disappointing. I was really hoping for a homerun for M. Night, but this was a HUGE swing and a miss. Movie felt empty. Like it didn't have any life or point to it. Sad.
