Octopi = multiple
Octopus = single
Octopussy = James Bond movie

actually its octopuses because the word octopus is greek rather than latin (according to the not always reliable wikapedia page) :P it doesn't really mater though. some people would say its octopods.

According to dictionary.com (more reliable than wikipedia)

oc·to·pus

(ŏk'tə-pəs) Pronunciation Key
n. pl. oc·to·pus·es or oc·to·pi (-pī')

so both are correct, but octopuSSes is not :D

correct octopods for the order Octopoda and it would be cephalopods for Cephalopoda to encompass squids, octopi, cuttlefish, and nautilus
