Twilight's Saga New Moon filming sucked the lifeblood out of school

Although thousands of Twilight fans would have jumped at the chance to be close to the shooting of New Moon scenes recently at David Thompson secondary, one student said the disruption was too much.

The Twilight fans who wish scenes from New Moon had been filmed at their school should think twice. I know I speak for other students at David Thompson secondary school in east Vancouver as well when I say we are so glad the New Moon crew has gone.

It seemed pretty cool at first, but when you mix in the hottest celebrities with a horrible film crew, the school turns into chaos. Closing the cafeteria for two days, taking over the foyer and forcing students to make detours and stop dead in our tracks during our break and lunch because they were filming a big-shot movie was not cool.

If they had wanted us to be quiet, perhaps they should've thought that through before taking over our school for two days. The crew acting like our school was theirs didn't help either.

I'm also sure many staff and students did not appreciate outside stalker fans coming into the school trying to get a glimpse of Spunk Ransom either. Famous people are humans, too; they'd appreciate privacy just like you would.

Well, it's a good thing that it was just a 2-day shooting.  Students of David Thompson Secondary School is now back to normal.  But let's admit that it was a hell of an experience & most of the students will surely live to tell the tale.
