Start piecing things together. You've got an address, and skills, and a personality. Those should narrow things down a LOT, in fact, should tell you a character if not a movie. I started dropping some key quotes, and if you still get stuck, I may come after you.....and you'll NEVER....see me coming.
The "never...see me coming" line seems vaguely familiar. The rest of it seems like a parody of some hostage/terrorist movie. Some funny lines, but a lot of it seems quite serious.

"You elected me on a single platform. I will defend this country at all costs."

[Tony with Pepper, towards the end.]
"What have I got to complain about now?" "Well, it's me. You'll find something."

[Jarvis with an update on the house- which led to the House Party Protocol being put into action. (The Iron Legion, to me!) ]
"My mom's at work and Dad went to 7-11 to get scratchers. I guess he won because that was six years ago."

" Admit it, you need me. We're connected." " What I need is for you to go home, be with your mom, keep your trap shut, guard the suit, and stay connected to the telephone, 'cause if I call you, you better pick up."
[Tony and the kid. The kid had to watch the Iron Man armor sit and do nothing.]
" I've got a lot of apologies to make and not a lot of time, so... first off. I'm so sorry I put you in harm's way. That was selfish and stupid and it won't happen again. Also, it's Christmas time.

"Remember that game, Barrel of Monkeys? This is how it is: we got to catch all the monkeys! "
[The rescue scene of the people who left the plane in mid-air.]
I'm SURE I've heard some or all of these. That last quote doesn't sound like Captain America. The one on height could be a Robert Downey Jr reference, but I doubt it is one. The wealth and privilege DOES sound like Tony Stark as well, especially as depicted by RD Jr.

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."

No. And I would have gotten it from the comment about the possible "Hispanic Scott Baio".

Start piecing things together. You've got an address, and skills, and a personality. Those should narrow things down a LOT, in fact, should tell you a character if not a movie. I started dropping some key quotes, and if you still get stuck, I may come after you.....and you'll NEVER....see me coming.
;)
Would it help if I mentioned the big bunny?

Actually, no.
The "never...see me coming" line seems vaguely familiar. The rest of it seems like a parody of some hostage/terrorist movie. Some funny lines, but a lot of it seems quite serious.
I'm still at a loss.

"You walked right into this one: I've dated hotter chicks than you." "Is that all you've got? A cheap trick and a cheesy one-liner?" "Sweetheart, that could be the name of my autobiography. "
"Am I going to be okay?" "No. You're in a relationship with me, nothing will ever be okay. But I had this twenty years ago when I was drunk, I can sort it out. I fix stuff."
"What have I got to complain about now?" "Well, it's me. You'll find something."
"Oh, my God. That was really violent."

"So?" "You with me?" "I was, yeah. Where – we were at, uh –" "Actively napping?" "I – I was – I – I – I drifted." "Where did I lose you?" " Elevator in Switzerland." "So you heard none of it?" " I'm sorry. I'm not that kind of doctor. I'm not a therapist. It's not my training."
"Is it that time?" "The House Party Protocol, sir?" "Correct."
Namedropped and included an action.

If you don't hear from me for a few days, it will mean my PC finally keeled over before I had a chance to replace it. Meanwhile, we're finishing this round, let's see....

"Here's what I need... A laptop, a digital watch, a cell phone, the pneumatic actuator from your bazooka over there, a map of town, a big spring, and a tuna fish sandwich."
" Admit it, you need me. We're connected." " What I need is for you to go home, be with your mom, keep your trap shut, guard the suit, and stay connected to the telephone, 'cause if I call you, you better pick up."
" I've got a lot of apologies to make and not a lot of time, so... first off. I'm so sorry I put you in harm's way. That was selfish and stupid and it won't happen again. Also, it's Christmas time. The rabbit's too big. Done. Sorry. And I'm sorry in advance because... I can't come home yet. I need to find this guy. You gotta stay safe. That's all I know. I just stole a poncho from a wooden Indian."
"Nice potato gun. Barrel's a little long. Between that and the wide gauge, it's going to diminish your FPS. And now you're out of ammo." "What's that thing on your chest?" "It's a... electromagnet. You should know. You've got a box of them right here."
"Remember that game, Barrel of Monkeys? This is how it is: we got to catch all the monkeys! "

It was the electromagnet that clued me on to Iron Man. I should have guessed #3, but I'll take the win.

"Hyperbole isn't the worst crime. Men suffer more from imagining too little than too much."
"You're even smaller than I imagined!"
"Well you're not exactly reaching the top shelf yourself, sweetheart."
"It is hard to understand wealth and privilege when you're born to it. "

I'm SURE I've heard some or all of these. That last quote doesn't sound like Captain America. The one on height could be a Robert Downey Jr reference, but I doubt it is one. The wealth and privilege DOES sound like Tony Stark as well, especially as depicted by RD Jr.
