Spock:
"The Women!!!"
"Disappeared in this region approximately 18 years ago!!
"Deflectors full intensity!"
"Exceptionally strong contact!"
"She'll blow soon!!!"

Riker:
"Shields up!!"
"Red Alert!"
"Captain Picard to the bridge!!"
"I'm not crazy!!!!!"
"You're a dead man Apgar!!! A DEAD MAN!!"


It's a debate perhaps best left to scholars and philosophers, but we will tackle it here on the trekbbs!

"CAHN'T be the screen, then!"

I think it's a mistake to discount Shouty Riker though, folks. The "YOU'RE A DEAD MAN APGAR" line alone carries substantial weight.

Problem there is the APGAR SHOUTY THREAT is delivered by holographic Riker, and it's based on a fake testimony of what happened. Otherwise, yeah, I'd at least consider him before dismissing him out of hand.
 
Shouty Spock is funny because Vulcans don't normally act that way. With most other characters, it's not as much fun when they shout, because it's normal for them to do so.
 
I'm going with Shouty Riker with a beard. The beard provides emphasis. It's possible Discovery's Spock with a beard might surprise though and take the win.

You forgot "NEGATIVE!!!"

Riker:
"Shields up!!"
"Red Alert!"
"Captain Picard to the bridge!!"
"I'm not crazy!!!!!"
"You're a dead man Apgar!!! A DEAD MAN!!"
You forgot "UnderSTOOD!!!"
 
Easy one...

No question here, Spock has the most gravitas. Though Sisko might be a closer competitor.

Riker I think commands more authority when he’s not shouting. Just when he’s talking in a stern authoritative voice.
