In veel films en TV series zien we briljante wetenschappers die een beetje gestoord zijn, maar onder tussen wel briljant en geniaal zijn.

3. The Ghostbusters from Ghostbusters

It's so hard to find good paranormal investigators these days. Some might say, even, that it's completely impossible to find good paranormal investigators, ever.

If there isn't a need for paranormal investigators, they will create an entirely new branch of science. Sure, they'll be frustrated that their branch of science doesn't go anywhere, but that's their problem, not ours. Should ghosts suddenly pop up, we'll have people qualified to deal with them. No matter what, we'll have a copy of Bill Murray. There's always room for a spare Murray.
