Doctor Strange was #1 again this weekend in North America, while moviegoers overseas continue to flock to the critically acclaimed Marvel Studios release. With a current haul of $153 million domestically, its $339.6 million international earnings takes the movie's worldwide total to $492.6 million, an incredible number at this point. A sequel is guaranteed, but still hasn't been announced.
