The trailer-text was:
Thorin: I cannot guarantee his safety.
Gandalf: Understood.
Thorin: Nor will I be responsible for his fate.
Maybe it could be a part of the same dialogue, maybe not...
Yes, that is completely new dialogue and seems to be getting at something that's a little different (in UT it's implied that bilbo's safety is the last thing thorin would choose to bring up). Also in the film/trailer I think the conversation might take place in bag end (that's not clear)?
