Box Office: "Super 8" Tops "X-Men" and "Hangover 2"

Powering its way atop the pack, the JJ Abrams and Steven Spielberg film "Super 8" is well on its way to a box office topping debut over the weekend of June 10-12, 2011.

The Sci-Fi/Thriller starring Joel Courtney and Elle Fanning pulled in $12 million on Friday while pacing towards a opening pull of approximately $35 million.

In garnering the pole position, "Super 8" edged out last weekend's winner "X-Men: First Class" - as the James McAvoy/January Jones starring comic book caper slipped to the runner-up spot while aiming at a $24 million second weekend take.

Rounding out the projected top five at this weekend's box office are three big name pictures including "The Hangover Part II" ($17.5 million), "Kung Fu Panda 2" (17.5 million) and "Pirates Of The Caribbean 4" ($11.5 million).
