And I know Smallville and SR conferred, so I don't know if there were deliberate references to Smallville, but I noticed Lex referring to mythology just like our Lex does, and Lois saying that Superman never lies, which I took as a sort of wink at Smallville's Clark. Oh and I suppose that Jonathon was killed in season 5, to fit in with the film
What perplexed me by A&M statements about them meeting with Singer to make sure there were no egregious conflicts between the two is that the Superman films supersedes SV. Jonathan dies in the first film. And that's about it. Lex is like the film Lex, but more evil. Hackman's Lex was too soft because he was an opportunists. I guess prison hardens you. There's no conflicts I could think of that SV would need to address. I think they just wanted to visit the set :)
Superman tells Lois in the first film that he never lies (but Clark apparently does), so I think that was a callback.
I missed the tribute to Christopher Reeves though, I thought there would be one included in the end credits? They placed it right after the initial run of credits. So after the cast's credits is a tag that says "Dedicated with Love and Respect to Christopher and Dana Reeve". Then the credits continue.
It was a bit longer than I thought it was going to be though... It seemed long when I was in the theater, then the next day I found out it was 2hrs and 45 mins long and I was like "Damn!! 3 hours. No wonder I was restless". I've seen it twice, so I couldn't have been that put out.
And I wasn't sure what time it was set in, but there were mobile phones and computers, so presumedly spell-check? LOL! I never thought of that.
