"Back off, man. I'm a scientist"
13. Peter Venkman
Ghostbusters
Before there was Vince Vaughn, there was Venkman. Part of the street-smart half of the paranormal control team known as the Ghostbusters (he and Winston, while Egon and Ray are the far more paranormal intelligent), Dr. Venkman keeps the team lively with his flippant nature and generally assholish quips.
A sarcastic but lovable prick, Venkman is a savvy skirt-chaser with a lazy approach to anything actually resembling work. BUT his big mouth can also be useful as he's damn fine at being persuasive, working his way over many people in New York City.
He's cynical, he's sarcastic, but damn it if we don't love him.
Defining moment: Using his powers of persuasion to the Mayor of New York. And like that, the Ghostbusters are back in business.
