A classic movie moment: David Lynch's 1984 Dune shows Paul Atreides, played by Kyle MacLachlan, training in combat with Gurney Halleck, played by Patrick Stewart. It's a cool glimpse into their mentor-student dynamic and the intense world-building of the film. Have you seen this version of Dune?
The fantasy action RPG from the Warframe team is moving from invite-only to open alpha after three years of limited tests.
