Notes for “Looking for Belgian”
Notes for the screenplay someday to be written. Or not. If you can understand these notes, good for you.
Lloyd - driver, dork
Shotgun - guy without a girl, rides shotgun.
Showtime - girl, mildly interested in boyfriend.
Boyfriend - back seat male
Hanging out, smoking out.
Idea to go get breakfast.
Lloyd (driver) wants waffles.
What kind? Belgian? no Leggos?
(leggos are part eggo and part leggs pantyhose container design concept) Chicken launcher?
Are Leggos are really Waffles? No. (long diatribe)
Who’s going to know but a waffle factory?
Where is a waffle factory?
Lloyd argues that good waffles are not made in a factory.
Brussels, Texas!
Open an map to Brussels, Texas.
(Around Sweetwater)
(No Dairy Queen)
You’re not on the map in Texas unless you’ve got a Dairy Queen. (hence Brussels, Texas, doesn’t realy exist)
On road, on way to Brussels, STWS starts…
So, what do you think this town is like?
Police run organized crime sydnicate through waffle factory!
transport cocaine through waffle boxes in 18 wheelers
Do people find out? Yes
18 wheeler gets in accident spews waffles and nose candy across highway. State trooper who finds it is hospitalized
when dust devil kicks up.
Tangent STWS:
Kid grows up in Brussels, has everything ever wants, but doesn’t have any love and guidance.
Goes to convenience store, knocks over hostess rack ?skateboard?,Would he go in convenience store to play videogames? clumsy.
Later on, Lloyd & Gang go to get gas, see overturned Twinkie stands.
Why is there a Belgian waffle factory in texas?
Globalization! Lost the software job to India, gain a waffle factory in Texas.
As they drive on, later, overturned 18 wheeler, with coked out DPs car on side of road. waffles everywhere. No one
in Lloyd’s car notices.
Rule: Everything they agree on in the story happens in real life. (Accident or not)
Things they do not agree on are incidental to the plot.
City has largest waffle at city fair.
Biggest waffle maker, (Guiness Book)
Worlds fair. Early 20th Century. Beef sandwiches, journalist asks “what are these?” Hamburgers. “What are these “fried potatoes” Paris recipe “French Fries” Really, Paris Texas.
Discussion on: waffles: Fucking guy with hot belgian waffle wraps around ice cream?
Shotgun has gas.
Lloyd needs gas. They go to convenience store.
Ending:
They find a waffle factory
get out of the car
start talking about absurbity of coincidence.
Talking about consensus
Girl says everything you agreed on is true.
Earlier sex scene:
Motel to take a break
Driver says no, not true.
Everytime you say that’s not true, it doesn’t happen.
3 people realize it’s true. Driver makes fun of agreeable person.
Problem with you is, you’re a jackass.
SWTS:
Kids don’t like Lloyd, and they decide he should get a bullet in the head.
The couple agrees, they all stop and look at each other.
Driver continues walking, says, No, Wait a minute. Maybe that is–”
Bam.
