Batman V Superman - Ultimate Edition: 11 Ways It Improves The Original
11. Jimmy Olsen Is Properly Introduced
Many were left scratching their heads when the theatrical cut's credits listed Michael Cassidy's photographer character (and CIA spy) as being the legendary Daily Planet snapper Jimmy Olsen. After all, he's never mentioned by name during the Nairomi sequence and is killed off without any fanfare at all.

In the Ultimate Edition, however, as Lois arrives in Nairomi by taxi, Jimmy walks over and introduces himself to her by name. Sadly his fate is still the same, getting shot in the head, but it's nice to have actual confirmation within the movie that this is Jimmy, rather than it being relegated to credits most people won't even see.
