Stephen of Borg 2 Posted December 1, 2007 (edited) Do you think that Riker will stay the captain of the Titan for the rest of his career, or do you think that he will get a shot at "the seat" and become the captain of a future Enterprise?

Kor37 9 Posted December 1, 2007 I wouldn't be too surprised if he took over for Picard when Picard finally retires. Of course, if it happens, it would be in a book series I imagine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.Picard 12 Posted December 1, 2007 I think Jean-Luc will pull a few strings at Command and "convince" them to give Riker the Enterprise. :P If Jean-Luc ever retires, that is. :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike 5 Posted December 1, 2007 If Jean-luc follws Kirk's advice Riker will never get a shot at the Enterprise.. I wish we could have seen the Titan in at least one of the movies though.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Look how long it took Spock to become Captain of the Enterprise! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GhostofMajorHayes 10 Posted January 12, 2008 In the future, the answer is no. He already did in the two-parter "Best of Both Worlds". However, i think he has settled in on the Titan very nicely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hangon 3 Posted May 18, 2008 I voted no i dont think so coz he is the Captain of Titan which from the pics i have seen for the design looks better then the Enterprise Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trekz 7 Posted May 19, 2008 I would think he might be Captain of the Enterprise in the future. This makes me think of a question: Does Star Fleet let captains remain in command of the same ship for as long as they wish, or do they get moved around periodically, to get better commands or to improve a ship's crew, efficency, etc? Haven't they let Picard stay Captain of the Enterprise for an awfully long time? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
He Who Shall Not Be Named 2 Posted May 19, 2008 In today's military you don't stay in the same command for more than 3 years, 4 tops. They will move you to a different unit even if it is one of equal size, training, and capabilities. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WildStar 0 Posted May 19, 2008 He would make the best Captain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gummy 0 Posted May 20, 2008 I wouldn't be too surprised if he took over for Picard when Picard finally retires. Of course, if it happens, it would be in a book series I imagine. I agree. I doubt that there will ever be another TNG movie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SeeingEyeBorg 0 Posted May 20, 2008 Said maybe. In Trek, anything's possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A l t e r E g o 9 Posted May 21, 2008 Well, he was the Captain in AGT. I know the particular incidents regarding the anomaly won't happen now but that does not necessarily mean his becoming It's captain wont/can't happen. Take Geordie's eyes for example, that aspect of the alternate AGT time-line did occur so, so could Riker becoming Captain. Then again, DATA wasn't dead in the AGT timeline... I vote maybe. Great question! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wishfire 2 Posted July 20, 2008 I think it's highly probable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
He Who Shall Not Be Named 2 Posted August 5, 2008 The only way All Good Things makes sense and can be rectified to the canon is if we think of it as a possible future that Q picked at random. Data's death and the destruction of the Enterprise-D makes it impossible now, but at the time it wasn't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaboGirl 7 Posted August 5, 2008 I vote No. The Enterprise is Picard's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rob39874 0 Posted August 6, 2008 I think Riker will take command of the flagship I'm sure Picard will want to go to his second love soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
He Who Shall Not Be Named 2 Posted August 6, 2008 The Titan is probably superior to the Enterprise since it is a more recent model. Given that, what makes you think the Titan wouldn't replace the Enterprise as the Federation flagship? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rob39874 0 Posted August 7, 2008 The Enterpries has always been the flagship off the fleet I doubt even the Titan would be made that. And I think Will would still want the Enterprise after all it's like his first love he will never forget her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eratosthenes 0 Posted August 8, 2008 (edited) Most definitely. I'd love to see him take over once Picard eventually threw in the towell...or was 'promoted' due to old age. Edited August 8, 2008 by Eratosthenes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
