Star Trek: The Next Generation
Summary
Captain James T. Kirk ( William Shatner ) gave Captain Jean - Luc Picard ( Patrick Stewart ) of import advice inStar Trek Generations , and I think Jean - Luc should have passed Kirk ’s advice on to Captain William T. Riker ( Jonathan Frakes ) inStar Trek : Nemesis . Kirk met Picard inStar Trek : The Next Generation ’s first feature film . That historicStar Trekevent saw the two Captains of the USS Enterprise squad up to stop a madman list Dr. Tolian Soran ( Malcolm McDowell ) from destroying the Veridian star organisation . Tragically , Kirk died break off Soran , but not beforehe imparted words of wisdom to the Captain of the Enterprise .
Star Trek Generations not only go through the Verbascum thapsus to the cast of The Next multiplication , it also revealed the ultimate fate of Captain James T. Kirk .
Captain Kirk’s Advice Should Have Been Passed By Picard To Riker
Riker became Captain in Star Trek: Nemesis
InStar Trek Generations , Captain Kirk cheer Captain Picard,“Don’t let them advance you . Do n’t get them shift you . Do n’t let them do * anything * that fill you off the bridge of that ship , because while you ’re there … you could make a difference . ”I believe Captain Picard should have tell Commander Will Riker the same when he became Captain of the USS Titan inStar Trek : scourge . Although Riker did n’t get to win Picard asCaptain of the Enterprise , I think it would have been fitting and resonant if Jean - Luc evoked Kirk ’s memory by advising Will not to give up being Captain easy if Starfleet comes call with a forwarding to flagstone officer .
Kirk ’s calling advice to Picard should have become a variety of heirloom that gets run down .
pay up the Captaincy of the Starship Enterprise was Kirk ’s biggest career regret , and Jim would have prefer to expend his living seek out new world and fresh civilization . Picard was very much like Kirk in term of his devotion to his Starship Enterprise . Picard was Captain of the USS Enterprise - calciferol and Es for a aggregate of 17 uninterrupted years , withRiker serving as his First Officerfor 15 of those years . distinctly , Picard did take Kirk ’s advice to heart , perhaps to Riker ’s sorrow , considering how long he waited to take over for Picard as Captain of the endeavor . But Kirk ’s career advice to Picard should have become a kind of heirloom that gets passed down , with Kirk to Picard to Riker as a natural progression .
It ’s potential Picard did tell Riker Kirk ’s advice at some dot afterStar Trek Generations , but it never canonically pass on screen .
Picard Ignored Kirk’s Advice And Became An Admiral Anyway (But Riker Is Still Waiting)
Jean-Luc Picard had his own problems as a Starfleet Admiral
Jean - Luc Picard could not continue Captain of the Enterprise everlastingly . Picard finally take a promotion to Admiral in 2381 when Starfleet assigned him to lead the United Federation of Planets ' evacuation of the Romulan people as their sun went supernova . Four years later , Picard resigned in objection when the Federation prematurely ended their saving mission afterrogue synths assail Marsand dealt Starfleet a crippling setback . A virulent Picard would pass the next 14 years in ego - imposed retirement before returning to legal action and excrescence in 2399 , as see inStar Trek : Picard ’s 3 seasons . Unlike Kirk , however , Picard did not yearn to be Captain of the endeavor again .
Despite his successful stint in bid of the USS Titan , Captain Will Riker is still waiting for his promotion to Admiral . Surprisingly , the additional pip did not arrive despite Riker ’s heroic inStar Trek : Picardseason 3 . However , both Picard and Riker were able to adjust to life away from being Captain of a spaceship more successfully than James T. Kirk did . In his ideal world , Kirk would have been Captain of the Enterprise until his dying breather , and his advice to Picard reflected that wish . I feel Picard snuff it Kirk ’s watchword on to Riker would have formed a meet chain of mountains , and perhaps Riker could have then shared Kirk ’s actor’s line with Captain Seven of Nine ( Jeri Ryan ) , thematically wed Kirk ’s ideals throughStar Trek : The Original Series , Star Trek : The Next Generation , andStar Trek : Picard .
