I suspect that part of the intent on the part of PJ is creating yet another tie to the previous (or subsequent...I'm getting to hate prequals) films with yet another incident of "oh yes, we saw those guys in the other movies."

I do agree with Nerwen that, at least from a cinematic standpoint, the scene was good until Radagast appeared and did his "who am I and what am I doing here?" That routine is getting old already. It is hard to have respect for the character as a wizard if they are going to continually go out of their way to prove Saruman right about him.
