Doing this they have to change the original film from where it was distributed and filmed to save legal suits. Outside the US we get to see the whole entire film exactly how they were filmed and distributed. There are a lot of movies we get to see which have been banned in the USA which are only suitable for world wide distribution.

What is with America changing the title of books and movies?
There have been so many books and movies lately that have one title all over the world then a completely different on in the USA (for a bad example; Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone (USA)/ Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone (rest of the world)). Why? Is it a marketing thing? Is it a language difference? Why does the USA feel the need to alter and change someones work and not leave it as it was originally intended?
