You just want some flat-headed screws so that everything is flush. Maybe get them on the long side (like 1-1.5 inch +) if you’re worried about the integrity of the door frame and the holes that have already been made.

Screw them in and you’re done. Wood glue or wood filler may come in handy (again, only if you don’t trust the door integrity), so get some to save yourself a trip.

Does American Graffiti count as a car movie?

I loving loved American Graffiti, and I love it even more now knowing that it literally got made because somebody (Francis Ford Coppola?) dared George Lucas to make a movie that was the complete opposite of his normal writing.

Buy screws and glue from the guy at the store. His name is usually Steve or Darryl. If it’s a lady her name is Sheila

It was Coppola, but it wasn't a dare so much as he legitimately put money down that George couldn't do an emotion-driven picture instead of an intellectual-driven one. George looked at it as a way to decompress from the months he had spent chiseling away at Apocalypse Now on and off with Milius, although the ending of Graffiti reveals that, well, all that poo poo was still on his mind, and the US versus North Vietnam would also influence his silly space opera saga that was ballooning to 300+ pages at the time...

Funny enough, John Landis, #1 Helicopter Parent, hated Graffiti when he first saw it, which is why Animal House does a pisstake of the ending. He thought it was maudlin and drunk off nostalgia and specifically asked Ramis, Kenney, and Miller to make fun of it with their ending; it wasn't until Edgar Wright was running a month-long series at the New Beverly ahead of Scott Pilgrim's release and ran a double feature of Animal and Graffiti that Landis, having already done a Q&A with Wright about House and deciding to sit through Graffiti since he was already there, watching the ending with thirty years of life having gone by, that he realized the ending was actually heartbreaking and cut through him like a knife (or, if you will, like a helicopter rotor through Vic Morrow and two children). Somehow "THIS CHARACTER GOT HIT BY A DRUNK DRIVER AND DIED, AND THIS CHARACTER ENDED UP MIA IN VIETNAM" after watching Curt leave on a jet plane being he first two things you see in those blurbs wasn't enough to make him realize the whole loving movie was George lamenting the end of his generation's innocence, transforming his little light ensemble comedy into a tragedy with that little bit of text. Half of a group of friends wiped from existence by things they had no control over.

Now let's never speak of More American Graffiti, of which the only interesting thing is the completely different choice in film stocks and aspect ratios per character story and use of split-screen, and everything else is flaming garbage.

We listened to every single Iron Maiden album, in order, on our way here. My revised top 5 Iron Maiden albums is as follows

1. Seventh Son of a Seventh Son
2. A Matter of Life and Death
3. Book of Souls
4. X Factor
5. Brave New World

Somewhere in Time would be #6, Number of the Beast #7. The classic albums have soooooo much filler, like half of Piece of Mind and Powerslave are just bad
