This week, The Lunch is joined by Germain Lussier, senior writer for the notorious and well-read Slashfilm.com; after we dined at The Grill in the Hollywood and Highland complex, Germain and I talked about that Star Wars photo, as well as sharing our three picks for which summer films we're most enthused about -- from the city-ravishing promise of Godzilla to the team-of-rogues Guardians of the Galaxy, the smart-looking Dawn of the Planet of the Apes to the gloriously goofy-seeming Jupiter Ascending, as well as the comedy of 22 Jump Street and the high-flying sequel How to Train Your Dragon 2. Digressions cover ground from the last time we saw a film without knowing every single detail of it (and wishing for that pleasure back) to John Bogeya's star power, Lawrence Kasdan's Silverado to The Fifth Element as wish-fulfillment for 12-year-olds and much, much more.

You can of course find Germain on twitter @germainlussier;
