    I think you all may be mistaken. This looks like it might be from the Fellowship of the R. and it is Saruman

    claw-like fingers and hands? And that has to be the ring around his neck. Just my opinion, I may be wrong.

    It’s not Pippin, it’s Frodo… see the glowy thing on the hobbit? It’s The Ring.

    Nevermind. I think it’s Sauron. He looks into the Palantir and sees Pippin and Saruman and thinks that Pippin

    Gandalf gave the Palantir to Aragorn before he left in the book. I don’t know what scene this is though…

    It’s Pippin. See where the light comes from? Shine in jewels and spheres always has two hot spots.
