dust off those thinking caps it’s time
to get creative behold a shrink ray
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top ten
fictional inventors from the movies call
me Captain Nemo for this list we’re
looking at fictional big screen
inventors that have the savvy and know
how to build technically complex devices
that we here in the real world can only
imagine according to this morning’s
sample it would be a Twinkie 35 feet
long weighing approximately 600 pounds
these scientists must invent a device or
tool that can actually be used long
Katainen
so mad scientists are gonna have to hold
out for another list and our apologies
to doctors like Frankenstein as well
also spoilers ahead so spoiler alert
you’ll ruin everything
number 10 Richard day tawang The Goonies
seat day to drop by if there’s a message
behind the Goonies it’s this if you’re
gonna go on a quest to find a long-lost
pirate treasure to get the funds needed
to save your entire town from
foreclosure
you are already done for that is unless
you’ve got a Boy Wonder inventor along
for the ride
data provides the titular goonies with a
gadget to get out of any scrape or
situation in addition to offering his
trademark one-liners of course Japan’s
actions award the inventor a worthy
friend and a worthy entry for number 10
shoes are you crazy
number 9 Lois
/ Cornelius Meet the Robinsons Lois Lois
this one’s tough to explain without
spoiling too much just know this in Meet
the Robinsons a young inventor named
Lewis who strives for acceptance is
brought into the future by a newfound
friend – once there he meets another
brilliant inventor who gives Lois
everything he could possibly ask for and
teaches him and the audience that
sometimes what we’re looking for is
actually within ourselves that depends
on you nothing is set in stone you got
to make the right choices and keep
moving forward yeah you guessed it
Cornelius is actually Lois from the
future you don’t look like a Lois you
look more like a Cornelius number 8
Jimmy Neutron Jimmy Neutron boy genius
next have you ever felt like you were
too smart for your own good
if you have then you know what Jimmy
Neutron the literal boy genius feels
like nonsense all great inventions need
a test run struggling for his
independence and freedom as well as the
ability to fit in with kids at school
Jimmy Neutron is constantly reminded
that he’s out of place and his
inventions get him into more trouble
than they’re worth
nerd Tron too bad somebody already
invented the fun but his enormous brain
comes in handy when he has to help his
friends build spaceships to save their
parents finally showing his true value
nobody eats my parents unless I say so
number seven Flint Lockwood Cloudy with
a Chance of Meatballs my name is Phil
Lockwood another inventor whose
creations cast him out instead of
helping him to be accepted Flint
Lockwood lives on a small island that
desperately needs a change everyone is
going to love this
after years of eating nothing but
sardines Lockwood gives the people the
Flint Lockwood diatonic super mutating
dynamic food replicator or floods
endeavor and I was about to invent a
machine what this valise acronym
actually represents is a machine that
converts water into food allowing the
people to eat to their heart’s content
for a town stuck eating sardines
but it’s not all candy and rainbows and
ice-cream sunshine when Bill hader’s
Lockwood learns a valuable lesson about
greed and overindulgence he must use his
inventions to put an end to the
out-of-control food machine sorry
kitchens closed number six Egon Spengler
the Ghostbusters franchise this is big
Peter this is very big there’s
definitely something here
when souls start to come back from the
dead who you gonna call on second
thought why bother asking a formidable
scientist in his own right Spangler uses
his technical savvy to develop the tools
that New York’s finest and only ghost
busters used to deal with the spirits
wandering the streets his inventions
bust ghosts and save lives in that order
just don’t cross the streams there’s
something very important I forgot to
tell you what don’t cross the streams
number five Emmett Doc Brown the Back to
the Future franchise when this baby hits
88 miles per hour you’re gonna see some
serious shit a lot of inventors have
brains but Doc Brown’s got style
hence the DeLorean time machine out of a
DeLorean the way I see it if you’re
gonna build a time machine into a car
why not do it some style he never made
much of himself as an inventor until
1955 when he slipped off the toilet and
hit his head on the sink and had a
vision of the flux capacitor the device
that allowed the DeLorean to travel
through time this is what makes time
travel possible flux capacitor now
that’s heavy what’s even more impressive
is that when the machine becomes stuck
after travelling back to 1955 he’s able
to engineer the car to harness the power
of a bolt of lightning in order to send
it back to the future
you see Einstein has just become the
world’s first time traveler high-tech
head into the future at 88 miles an hour
he’s leaving flames at the midpoint of
our list
number four wayne szalinski honey i
shrunk the kids i shrunk the kids in a
film for which the title tagline and
plot are all exactly the same rick
moranis builds a machine to shrink
things and accidentally you guessed it
shrinks the kids the adventure that
follows is that of the four children who
must now survive in their now tiny state
and their father who must fix his
machine in order to bring his family
back together why didn’t I think of this
before Wayne just like the movie itself
is sweet wacky and funny okay it’s got
serious problems little surprises around
every corner but nothing dangerous
number three
Willy Wonka Willy Wonka and the
Chocolate Factory in the world’s created
by Roald Dahl there is a thin line
between magic and science so when Willy
Wonka’s secretive factory opens its
doors to five lucky children we see both
through the eyes of young Charlie Wow
what a vote Oh looks good enough to eat
through the adventure charlie connects
with the withdrawn inventor and his
karma points pay out for all his
previous hardships mr. Wonka in turn the
kindness he shows Wonka allows him to
have faith in something that he had all
but given up on and that’s why you sent
out the golden ticket that’s right so
the factory’s yours Charlie you can move
in immediately at me
absolutely what happens to the whole
family
I want you to bring the wall number to
Tony Stark the Marvel Cinematic Universe
before he was a philanthropist he was
just a genius billionaire playboy who
invented and sold things that go boom to
the US military all those breakthroughs
military funding honey it was after
being wounded by one of his own weapons
however that he had a change of heart
and decided to make the world a better
place
it’s not a piece of equipment I’m in in
pizza see the glowing light in his chest
is a miniature arc reactor which not
only keeps the shrapnel out of his heart
but also powers the Iron Man armor
that’s because it’s a miniaturized arc
reactor I got a big one powering my
factory at home shrapnel out of my own
anything with this high-powered
prosthetic of sorts he’s able to join
the ranks of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes
and save the world on his own from time
to time
before we analyze our top pick here are
some honorable mentions I have a present
for you by the time you see the need for
my program it’ll be too late and you
will have lost two wars in one lifetime
zero-point energy now I save the best
inventions for myself
number one cue the James Bond franchise
thank you
wanting to listen now pay attention
viewer now pay attention please we’ve
seen James Bond get out of more scrapes
than we can remember and it’s not
because of his charm well not always
most of the time it’s thanks to the
tools given to him by the quartermaster
himself morning Q something about the
leg skiing hunty whether it’s providing
him with the gadgets hidden in his
watches and the like rolex amiga or
outfitting his Aston Martin with the
latest in techno wizardry Q is one of
double-oh-seven s closest allies behind
the headlights Stinger missiles all he
asks is that it be returned in pristine
condition
dude please trying to turn some of this
equipment in pristine order recently
we’ve seen a younger and fresher
incarnation of Q and we can’t wait to
see more of him every now and then a
trigger has to be pulled or not pulled
it’s hot in a which in your pajamas do
you agree with our list
