I love those mini movie icons. I use photoshop and "image ready", which comes with photoshop.
There are a couple of ways to make them - apparently you can just insert an actual movie clip like in this tutorial (http://community.livejournal.com/icon_tutorial/375897.html) - I've never tried that so I'm not sure how hard it is.
I made #13 by taking 11 screencaps of that scene... I chose the shot of David that I wanted for the larger picture in the icon, and then I just pasted each of the 11 screencaps onto the larger pic.
So I had 11 seperate images, (each had that larger picture and a shot of the scene in the corner).
I saved them all separately, then dragged them onto one picture (so each of the 11 pictures was a separate layer). I then used the "make frames from the layers" button (on the animation toolbar), then animated each for 0.1sec. Then I saved it as a .gif in ImageReady. (That sounds complex, but its not too hard! Let me know if you want better instructions!)
