Woof, not the most riveting weekend at the box office, folks. M. Night Shyamalan's twist-filled comic book character study Glass remains atop the pile with a $19 million haul, bringing the film's domestic total to $73.5 million. That's a win for Shyamalan and Universal, who produced the relatively small film for the pocket change amount of $20 million.
