This Kong movie looks well made. If they can pull off a movie about giant monsters, they should do one on global warming.

I read the tweets. Wow. And what a hypocrite.

How in one tweet can Mr. Vogt-Roberts say, "Let people live their lives as long as they're not inflicting harm upon others. Give everyone the same rights. This is basis sheeit..."

And then in real life he continually stalks and tweets about how some fat man (his words not mine) on the plane was listening to the wrong airplane music, was drinking too much coffee and red wine, was liking stories about Trumps cabinet appointments, didn't like Kapernick, had too much right wing stuff in his feed, and on, and on, and on.

So much for letting people live their lives Mr. Vogt-Roberts. You put Mrs. Kravitz to shame!

On one hand, what's his business sticking his nose into someone else's private browsing? He clearly seemed to be quite aggressive and escalating the situation. And his constant tweeting makes him seem like an immature brat.

On the other hand, the seat-mate was clearly a drunken jerk. I sense that he is the type of person that does things like this just to provoke and bait people, and he clearly did that here. Sure, no one is saying you have to look closely at what others are doing, but in that type of environment, it tends to happen.

I myself would never browse material that could be highly offensive to others. When I fly, I simply watch the online movie, or read kindle books on my phone. I don't display politics, I don't do any of that. Why can't more people be respectful of others, on all sides?

'Kong: Skull Island' director live-tweets ugly confrontation with alt-right plane seatmate
I agree with you on the bolded but what really struck me as strange was he was tweeting and making fun of things like what music the guy was listening to, what movie he was watching, how he ate his cookie? It was really beyond obsessive.

Also, I will also state that proper airplane etiquette is to NOT look at your fellow passengers phone screens or computer screens. Sure you may inadvertently see stuff, but staring is an airplane taboo. Anybody flying first class knows this. Mr. Director was clearly exploiting a private situation to support his own personal agenda.
