Harry Potter filming Pisses Off Students

Apparently, students at Oxford University are getting quite pissed off at the filmmakers of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, the feature-film version of J.K. Rowling's book. The film is currently being filmed at Oxford, and security guards are reportedly frisking students whenever they approach the top-secret set, according to a report from Empire Online.

"If they see any of us with a camera, they try to confiscate it," a student at Oxford's Christchurch College told Empire Online. "Even if you put your hands in your pockets, they think you're up to something suspicious. It's completely upset life at college--and we don't even get to watch them filming." And I say, to hell with those bloody movie set bastards!

The movie is currently shooting in the college's cloisters, but entrances to the set are blocked by a combination of college and studio security. In other words, it's a bloody Rent-a-Cop combo pack. Filmmakers have also blocked off a lecture room that overlooked filming.
