Originally the news reports near the end of the film were going to be on a much larger scale. Jon Favreau mentions it was going to be a CNN report and there were supposed to be a dozen cop cars surrounding Central Park. Also the cops were supposed to be chasing Buddy down Fifth Avenue, shooting at him as he shot back at them. He also jumps off the Empire State Building and onto a helicopter in Berenbaum's original script. Favreau felt the "slice of life" news story played better into the reality of the situation. He says helicopters circling and cop cars swarming would have looked too much like The Blues Brothers (1980).
