I noticed an interesting cultural indicator when I compared domestic and foreign box office totals last week, and I see today that it's still holding true.

I think people will have different reactions to the results for these two movies, but nobody can deny that they do say a few things:

X-Men 3 Box Office Totals (as of June 2)

Domestic - $151,731,000

Foreign - $84,673,662

The DaVinci Code Box Office Totals (as of June 2)

Domestic - $158,471,000

Foreign - $317,479,155

Believe it or not, I think the two are related.
