The Lobby: M. Night Shyamalan Retrospective: Glass (2019)

In this latest chapter of our ongoing M. Night Shyamalan retrospective series, The Lobby presents an in-depth analysis of the 2019 film Glass. While our journey through Shyamalan’s filmography continues in future episodes, this installment marks the definitive conclusion to the "unofficial" superhero trilogy that began nearly two decades ago. Special guests Peyton of The Apple Box Chronicles and Kale Smith of The Youth Critic Podcast return to the show once more to help Marley navigate the complex production history and the 19-year creative journey required to bring this specific story to its end.

The conversation centers on Shyamalan's perseverance as a filmmaker and the intricate thematic threads that tie this film back to the foundations laid in Unbreakable and Split. As we bridge the gap between his earlier masterworks and his most recent projects, we take a comprehensive look at a director reclaiming his unique vision and completing a narrative arc that redefined the comic book genre. Stay tuned as our retrospective continues next time with a look at the high-concept thrills of Old.
