"I have commanded men in battle. I have negotiated peace treaties between implacable enemies. But none of this compares with my solemn duty today... as best man.

"And if you had lived my life, you would understand my responsibility."
That makes me feel more confident about my guess, then. Let's see. It sounded familiar. To be specific, that opening reminded me of Patrick Stewart as Jean-Luc Picard. So, a ST movie from "Generations" to "Nemesis", inclusive. That includes at least one good movie ("First Contact", so we count that out) and several stinkers. I think I have it down to 2 movies. To save time, I'll throw both names up,
"Star Trek-Insurrection"
"Star Trek- Nemesis".
Raf's comment has me suspecting the latter, despite the former having funnier quotes.
Would you believe I have the thing on DVD? I found it on extreme clearance. Paid $2 something for it. I figured that- even if it was awful- it would be worth at least that. I feel I got my money's worth, and paying that little made me feel better about how badly it stunk.
Yes, and written they way their advertised it- so, written the way I liked to pronounce it when it hit the theaters- "Star The Empire Strikes Back Wars."
[sets the juice down] "There you go. That's uh, eleven fifty."
"Uh, no, no. Perhaps you misunderstood me. I wish to cancel my original order of the martini and two olives and go for just the plain cranberry juice, by itself, for the three dollars. And I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you."
"Uh, perhaps you don't understand. If you don't pay me now, I'm gonna take this swizzle stick, and uh, I'll be shoving that right up your pee hole."
"See this ring? Topaz, my mother's birthstone. Know where I got the money for it?"
"Where?"
"Man-whoring! See this keychain? Mini yo-yo. Know where I got the money for it?"
"Man-whoring?"
"Stock market! But I got the money for the stock market from man-whoring."

Crimson Tide?

I'm guessing that WW won't mind my adding a clue: the movie starred Danny Kaye. George

Once again, you posted a quote from a movie, where you could have posted 1/2 the script without me getting it, except for the one quote you posted. This was from early on in "Red Dawn."

I normally wouldn't give it to you with two guesses on the table, but, since you did lean toward the latter (Nemesis), it's yours.
Guinan apparently had been married twenty-three times.

"Martini, two olives."
"Eight fifty."
"Eight dollars?"
"And fifty cents."
"How much just for a plain cranberry juice?"
"Oh, three dollars."
"Well I'll go for that."

"Uh, no, no. Perhaps you misunderstood me. I wish to cancel my original order of the martini and two olives and go for just the plain cranberry juice, by itself, for the three dollars. And I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you."
