While many great songs are made for movies, not all make it.
Awesome songs are made for movies all the time. Big artists love certain movies or franchises and just want to be part of them. But sometimes just wanting something is not enough
The Playlist:
Despite the relative disappointment of "Dark Shadows" -- the film's closing on $200 million worldwide, which is nothing to be sniffed at -- Johnny Depp is still one of the biggest stars in the world, something sure to only be further cemented by next year's "The Lone Ranger." But the actor must have had one of the most curious career paths of any top-tier star: from horror movie fodder in "Nightmare on Elm Street" to war movie bit-parter in "Platoon" to TV hearthrob in "21 Jump Street" to freakish leading man in "Edward Scissorhands" to leading man in indie-minded films like "Benny & Joon" and "What's Eating Gilbert Grape," to would-be mainstream leading man in "Chocolat" and "From Hell."
Those are not my 5 favorite by a longshot. I will have to make a list and get back on that one. There are just too many but I do know that one is Benny and Joon.
I'm sure alone on this but i wanted to see rango on the list, i thought he was awesome in it

There have been a huge number of excellent movies featuring road-based storylines, but some are undoubtedly more of a thrill than others.
