TheStreet: DreamWorks Animation, which took write-downs on three of its previous four films, blew away industry forecasts this weekend when it latest film “Home” debuted with ticket sales of $54 million, according to box office tracking firm Rentrak. At its current pace, the film could become one of DreamWorks’ biggest hits in years. The unexpectedly strong performance for the film could insure a healthy first quarter for the company, which reported a $309.6 million net loss for 2014.
