Home has done pretty damn well in the U.S. and Canada, racking up over $170.3 million in domestic receipts. But its world total stands at $347,294,822, which means only 50% of its take comes from abroad. (Usually 2/3 of worldwide gross) is from overseas.

DreadmWorks pictures that aren't U.S. centered have usually picked up more coin in foreign lands. Home will earn something south of $400 million before its global run is through. It's doubtful that will translate into making a sequel, but the company should make money on the picture.
