Kid, don't threaten me. There are worse things than death, and uh, I can do all of them.
A man meets his long-lost brother while on the job. While the man goes about his business, he discovers his boss has set him up to be eliminated from his position. The man's brother helps out and gets a promotion in his own profession. They part amicably at the end of the movie.

The point I'm trying to make is that the only way to come out on top is to kick the Air Force in the nuts, beart it savagely with a weight and take a dump on it's face.
With no guesses still, a final round of big hints before I give these away.

1. Two parents are reunited with their runaway daughter thanks to the actions of a concerned citizen.
Shooting Sport plays a major role in winning their daughter's return.
The citizen is a severely disturbed former Marine.

These three have one rather large thing in common:

(2) A young woman takes an impromptu trip to South America via sea-plane with a new friend she met only hours before.
Her friend brags about how he enjoys eating hats in the morning.
Her friend is heading to South America to rescue his teenage daughter.

(3) A powerful figure in the mining industry tries in vain to convince a former coworker to attend a company party.
The coworker sarcastically promises to attend after the two get into an altercation in an elevator.
Although the coworker promises to see him there, neither men make it to the party.

(4) A suave, duplicitous ladies' man is abducted and interrogated by government agents.
The ladies' man's own fake backstory about being a spy ended up landing him in hot water.
It's ill-advised to pretend to be a spy to seduce the wife of an actual spy.

1: A man looks out the window at a FedEx truck and wishes that it was delivering important papers to his home/office. Several unrelated events occur, and finally his dream comes true - he and his friends receive their very own FedEx delivery, prompting a trip for them all to Taiwan.

2: A fixer is hired to prevent a theft. She calls in a favor from the mayor to gain access to the scene, but the theft is carried out anyway.

3: A group of three prostitutes have an urgent call to make, but a man is already using the phone. They try to hurry him up, and even get their pimp to try to intimidate the phone's user, but are ultimately unsuccessful in gaining access to the phone.

In this documentary, an unkempt man spits a lot, eats from a trash can. Later he wanders around and drinks a refreshing coke. He takes a break in a bar that specializes in drinks laced with powerful stimulants.

As the story proceeds, he finds riding on two different boats, three different planes, a train, and a toilet. The movie ends with him speaking to Christ before succumbing to cold arctic waters and drowning.

This one's also correct. Here are some new ones:

4: A man sings a song as he uses a public restroom and it has a curious result. Later, he brings his two friends into the bathroom and they repeat the performance as a conga line.

5: A fellow whose nose was bit off by a prostitute years ago happens to meet her again, gets a prosthetic nose, and decides to marry her.

6: A man struggles with light sensitivity and a debilitating fear of lawn sprinklers.

A singer-songwriter has just got married. When his new wife is visited by one of her priggish ex-classmate he is hit by sudden inspiration and writes a scathing diss track against her. The song makes enough money for the couple to move into a massive country estate.
