I like the TV show fleshing out the squid thing more. I think the movie ending was fine for the time though.
I remember recommending the movie to people and being told "you should have warned me there was blue penis" by one person. And then he went on to say "blue penis" at random times when he saw me. I don't know how he would have reacted if there was a giant alien psychic squid attack
Yeah, while the movie had its flaws, notably pacing, my wife and sister lost it at "big blue penis," and I was like, "what? THAT was what you focused on?"
I still felt the movie was pretty true to the message and had some memorable scenes and lines.
“None of you seem to understand. I’m not locked in here with you. You’re locked in here with me!”
I saw that movie and recommended it, with a caveat. I said, "It's a great movie, but there's a lot of big blue schlong. If that's a problem for you, you won't enjoy it. If it isn't, it's a great show."
"If that's a problem for you, you missed the message."
Seriously. If that's a problem for you, maybe put in some work and join the rest of us in adulthood soon.
