Those visiting the U.S. from other countries are spending more than ever due to the weakened dollar, begging the question--is some of this coin being spent at the American box office?
 
Just today, CNN reported that tourism at Yosemite has never been higher, thanks to the the surge in international guests.The megaplex and multiplex are as much an American icon as Yosemite, not to mention that buying a movie ticket in the U.S. is going to be cheaper than seeing a film back home, at least in many cases. 

According to the Travel Industry Association, the amount of money spent in the U.S. by overseas visitors last year rose by $8.5 billion to $96.5 billion.
 
The majority of international tourists still come from the U.K., Japan and Germany, although there's more and more tourists from Brazil, China and India. Forbes reports that  three of the most popular destinations are restaurants, big cities and historical attractions. Who knows--maybe going to the movies should be added to the list.
