STAR TREK Marathon on ntv7

If you have always been curious about the existence of mysterious new worlds out there in the far reaches of the galaxy or an avid fan of the revolutionary STAR TREK films – you are in for a special treat this Novembe. The Home of Feel Good, ntv7 will be bringing you a month of Star Trek flicks in its weekly Sunday Movie slot from 11.00pm – 1.00am with four familiar titles under the franchise of this all-time favourite science fiction film – Generations (1994), First Contact (1996), Insurrection (1998) and Nemesis (2002).

“ntv7 has always been an avid content provider of world class entertainment such as the airing of blockbuster movies in its weekly Sunday Movie slot including a marathon of James Bond movies which achieved astounding reviews and ratings from both media and the public,” said Airin Zainul, Group General Manager of ntv7 & 8TV.

“The channel takes on yet another box office movie franchise for its November Sunday Movie slot this year. This is one of the ways that we are giving back to our faithful viewers for their continuous support to ntv7 for the past 15 years and counting,” Airin added.

Kicking off the first Sunday of November is GENERATIONS, a 1994 Star Trek film which won various awards including the ASCAP Award 95’ for Top Box Office Film and Universe Reader’s Choice Award 95’ for Best Writing for a Genre Motion Picture. The two-hour show which airs on 3rd November at 11.00pm stars Patrick Stewart, Jonathan Frakes, Brent Spiner, LeVar Burton and William Shatner. Retired Starfleet officers James T. Kirk (William Shatner), Montgomery Scott (James Doohan) and Pavel Chekov (Walter Koenig) are guests of honour aboard the newly christened Enterprise-B. A test run takes an unexpected turn, however, when the starship encounters two vessels trapped inside the Nexus, a mysterious energy ribbon. During a perilous rescue attempt, Kirk is swept out into space. Seventy-eight years later, Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) and the crew of the Enterprise-D find themselves at odds with the renegade scientist Tolian Soran (Malcolm McDowell) who is destroying the entire star systems. Only one man can help Picard stop Soran’s scheme… and he’s been dead for seventy-eight years.

Patrick Stewart resumes his role as Captain Picard in 1996’s FIRST CONTACT, which also stars Jonathan Frakes and Brent Spiner. Airing on November 10th at 11.00pm, the film took home the 1997 Saturn Award for Best Costumes, Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress. After an epic battle against the Borg (cybernetically-enhanced life forms), Captain Picard and the crew of the Enterprise follow the Borg Sphere and return to the 21st century to prevent the Borg from contaminating Earth’s timeline and preventing Earth’s first contact. Picard and the crew must work together to battle the Borg Queen before she assimilates all of mankind and changes history forever.

Meanwhile, 1998’s INSURRECTION which airs on 17th November, 11.00pm will see the crew of the Enterprise team plot against the inhabitants of a unique planet, where Captain Picard is forced to begin an open rebellion. The film was named the “Best Science Fiction” film in the 1999 Saturn Award.

Airing on 24th November, 11.00pm is NEMESIS which took home the Best Family Feature Film (Fantasy) in the Young Artist Award 2003. The show will see Captain Picard taking on his most fearsome challenge yet. In the wake of a joyful wedding between Riker (Jonathan Frakes) and Troi (Marina Sirtis), Captain Picard receives another reason to celebrate. The Romulans want peace and the captain will be the Federation’s emissary. But as the Enterprise heads toward the Romulan Empire, a brilliant villain awaits – harbouring a diabolical plan of destruction.

Don’t forget to catch all the action and adventure in ntv7’s Star Trek movie marathon happening in the month of November where future inhabitants of Earth take on the quest of exploring strange new worlds. Is it all just science fiction or is there some real fact in the mix? Tune into ntv7, every Sunday at 11.00pm to catch STAR TREK Generations (1994), First Contact (1996), Insurrection (1998) and Nemesis (2002).
