Also, Pippin searching alone for Merry is akin to the books. Merry was wondering around ignored, and this compares (as he points out himself) to how he was also ignored by the Witch King, and thus able to defeat the WK with Eoywn and therefore enable Frodo to save Middle-earth.
As I said above, I just wish movie Merry spoke the line 'are you here to bury me?'
