I think thats a flawed argument. This has nothing to do with "suitability." Theres still an entire platoon of soldiers waving machine guns and shooting at Indy elsewhere in the trailer. I think its just an instance of one of the trailers being from a later source where either more or less soldiers were digitally added as per the filmmakers request. But whatever the case--its not like E.T. Theres not "sanitising" or "cleaning up" because in both trailers there are scores of soldiers pointing guns at Indy and then firing at him later on.
Well, I would hope so. Though it would make sense that a particular trailer might remove certain "offensive" elements in order for it to be viewable in more places. In that case, and someone finds guns offensive to families, I have trouble understanding that.
My point though is: if the guns were removed because they would be offensive to families---then why does the "sanitized" trailer still have two dozen soldiers shoving guns in Indy's face and then shooting at him for half the thing??
Its not a censorship issue.
