First of all I was talking US gross. Secondly studios usually on get 55% of the US gross. Assuming that 55% applies worldwide 55% of $330 million is $181.5 million. So that would be at most $81.5 million not counting advertising costs.
Compare to say Spiderman 3 which so far has made $809 million worldwide and a production budget of $258 million. Factoring in the same 55% SP3 has made $187 profit and counting. So yes I'd say Fantastic 4's box office sucked.
