The new ending worked really well, maybe even better than the original, and didn't really change anything as far as the resolution of the story, but I would have rather seen it the way Moore had written it. Other than that there were a few things I would have like to see included that weren't but those are just small things like lines that were omitted or small details that were changed.

I read an interview with Snyder on why the ending was changed.
Spoiler Alert!!!!
The studio execs thought that in a post 9-11 world that the GN ending was way too graphic and had reservations spending 100 million on it.
Snyder agreed and honestly the GN ending is what I really wanted to see but I can understand the alternative point of view.
