aside from the psychic powers bit, i have to disagree with you. it was established early on that because of Jon the worlds technologies had grown to incredible levels very quickly and diverged quite far from the 80's that we remember. i mean, Veidt had the extinct cat with him all the time that he had genetically engineered or whatever. it's really not so far-fetched that he'd be able to create a big squid monster.
supersheep:
Also, John is completely invincible, short (probably) of a black hole. At least an alien squid being is something you can possibly defeat.
Man did the music jar me. And the sex scene was unintentionally hilarious. And it left me feeling a bit hollow. A friend said that it wasn't good or bad, it just happened, and I sort of agree with him.
Blue Kitty:
Speaking of the cat, my cousin thought they should have mentioned it seeing as how it pretty much came out of nowhere. It kind of made sense when they had the giant squid, but now it seems out of place.
I will admit it looks better in the movie then in the book though.
Scandanavian War Machine:
yeah, the comic had Veidt give a little mini-monologue about how he resurrected it from fossilized DNA or whatever it was, so it made sense; espescially with the squid and everything, and the whole bit about nuclear cars and how technology has changed, none of which was mentioned in the movie.
Johnny C:
The cat was another way Moore foreshadowed the squid so he does seem a bit out of place.
