[HairOfTheDog]

I have seen the 10 minute preview many times now... and that just doesn't look familiar at all!

Hmm... If I was at home I could go watch it. Drat. Guess I'll have to watch it again tonight!

I'm going right now to watch it and double check, but I'm pretty sure. I suspect the reason the photos are so grainy is because someone zoomed in on it and caught the screen shots that way.

Hmmm...maybe I still have it in my recycle bin.

I did still have it in the recycle bin! I restored it and watched it and sure enough, there is Merry and Pippin, surrounded by orcs turning slowly around, Merry with a gash over his eye. It's very fast and not as close up as the one you posted, though. It's much easier to see on the DVD.

Anyway, the pictures you posted are the same thing, maybe lightened a bit and zoomed in on. An excellent scene. M and P look to be in a heap o'trouble.
