For a failure of an odd pixel or three, I'd agree, but if it's dozens of pixels that have suddenly failed and it's a fault that comes and goes, I'd say it's unlikely to be the screen itself. It looks from the photograph to be more than just individual pixels too, more like short lines of 3 or 4 pixels. That's almost certainly a video controller fault. It's possible of course that the controller circuit responsible is built into the back of the screen, and therefore replacing the entire screen 'module' would fix it, but either way I reckon that's a fault at the video 'processing' level.
