Glass has at least another week to go, so yes most likely. 

 

However China already beat everyone to it

[SchumacherFTW]

Shit, when did THE HOST get dropped out of the top 10???

[lorddemaxus]

That was a decent post-holiday drop for Alita. How much are we looking at in terms of final gross.

[Wotad]
