Enjoy a Star Trek Movie Marathon on Pluto TV


There is little doubt that the Star Trek panel at Comic-Con@Home had a lot to offer but if you still feel like you're missing out on some content, Pluto TV has your back. Trekkies can sit back and enjoy an awesome Star Trek movie marathon today.

Pluto TV's Sci-Fi channel will be airing five Star Trek movies starting 12 p.m. ET as part of the network's 31 Marathons in 31 Days series running throughout July. The chosen films represent every notable timeline in the franchise so you'll get to see three different generations in just one day.

The full schedule for the Star Trek movie marathon is listed below.

Star Trek: The Motion Picture (12 p.m. ET)
The Federation calls on Adm. James T. Kirk (William Shatner) and the crew of the Starship Enterprise to contain an immense nimbused object that's on a crash course with Earth. After investigating, the crew discovers that the alien cloud harbors artificial intelligence with an ominous primary directive. Crisis strikes when a probe dispatched by the energy cloud attacks the crew, abducting navigator Lt. Ilia (Persis Khambatta). An android look-alike containing her memories shows up soon after.

Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (2:45 p.m. ET)
A renegade Vulcan makes Kirk (William Shatner), Spock (Leonard Nimoy), McCoy (DeForest Kelley) and the Enterprise go to a planet at the center of the galaxy.

Star Trek: Insurrection (5:00 p.m. ET)
A Federation mission to the planet Ba'ku takes a dangerous turn when a malfunctioning android, Data (Brent Spiner), takes a cultural task force hostage. When Capt. Picard (Patrick Stewart) and his crew investigate, they uncover the truth about the Federation mission: It was actually a systematic ploy by the Son'a to displace the peaceful inhabitants of Ba'ku. Now Picard and his crew must thwart the plot even while experiencing strange side effects from exposure to the planet's surface.

Star Trek: Nemesis (7:00 p.m. ET)
Capt. Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) diverts the starship Enterprise from its scheduled trip to Cmdr. Riker (Jonathan Frakes) and Counselor Troi's (Marina Sirtis) wedding to negotiate a peace treaty with the Romulans. Picard is shocked when Shinzon (Tom Hardy), the new Praetor of the Romulans, admits to being a clone of him. When the crew members discover a break-in on their computer, they are forced into a life-or-death battle to stop Shinzon's Warbird before it can destroy the Earth.

Star Trek Beyond (9:30 p.m. ET)
A surprise attack in outer space forces the Enterprise to crash-land on a mysterious world. The assault came from Krall (Idris Elba), a lizard-like dictator who derives his energy by sucking the life out of his victims. Krall needs an ancient and valuable artifact that's aboard the badly damaged starship. Left stranded in a rugged wilderness, Kirk (Chris Pine), Spock (Zachary Quinto) and the rest of the crew must now battle a deadly alien race while trying to find a way off their hostile planet.

The Star Trek movie marathon is just the beginning for Pluto TV, which is set to stream more Star Trek content in the future including Star Trek: The Next Generation. This should be welcome news for Trekkies who have been hoping to catch up on the series.
