All releases of the 30th Anniversary Edition Blu-ray
The included Theatrical Trailer is not the original trailer. It's a re-edit and it's missing footage, that's no longer in the final movie. The original trailer can only be found on the DVD releases and on the Criterion Collection LaserDisc

This might change with the upcoming 2022 release of the ultimate edition.

Re: Ghostbusters (1984) - Blu-ray and 4K Blu-ray
Do you have a comparison source of what is different?

Using this video of the original trailer on Youtube as reference
A shot at 1:05 of Venkman saying to Dana "I'm the chairmen of the largest paranormal removal company in America" in her apartment.
On the Blu-rays trailer the sequence was replaced with a shot of Venkman standing in front of the Ghostbusters headquaters
A shot at 1:50 of Venkman saying "Make them hard" when the Ghostbusters get ready to kick Gozer's butt.
On the Blu-rays trailer the shot was replaced with a shot of Gozer
You can watch the trailer that's on the Blu-ray on Movie-List.com
Afaik there is no other reference online, about the trailer on the Blu-rays not being the actual 1984 theatrical trailer.

But is it confirmed the one of the Blu-ray is NOT the original? The opening "PG" rating on the YouTube link seems "new" rather than vintage.
Is it possible the trailer on YouTube is in fact the re-edit and the Blu-ray trailer being the original? The Blu-ray has the "Coming Soon" tag at the very end.
