A barrel of bile and backlog of blockbusters didn't keep America from having a go at Green Lantern on Friday, resulting in a healthy (if not astounding) opening day tally. Jim Carrey delivered reasonably as well, while Super 8 tapered off by half in its quest for week-two lucre. Let's check out the numbers; your Friday Box Office is here.
1. GREEN LANTERN: $22 million (new)
2. MR. POPPER'S PENGUINS: $7 million (new)
3. SUPER 8: $5.8 million ($71.5 million)
4. X-MEN: FIRST CLASS: $3.3 million ($129 million)
5. THE HANGOVER PART II: $3 million ($233 million)
