Additions and Omissions
1st Half - The Death of Superman
03:58 to 04:47 mark: Bruno Mannheim crashes through a building and lands on top of a parked car. Superman descends on him and knocks him into a delivery truck. They charge each other and lock hands. Mannheim charges up and blasts him away then from above throws a car on top of him. Superman uses heat vision to slice the car in half then punches Mannheim. This lines up to the solo release of him hitting the side of the building then having his suit torn off.
11:35 to 11: 40 mark: There are extra bits of Superman flying Lois to the Daily Planet scene. Superman and Lois' backs are to audience as they head towards the Daily Planet and of them descending from the roof's globe.
1:13:06 to 1:13:18 mark: The Titans Tower exterior shot is followed by Teen Titans (Beast Boy, Nightwing, Starfire, Raven, Blue Beetle) watching the funeral on their big monitor screen. It ends with a standing shot of the team.
