Spaceballs came out the year after Aliens, otherwise that would have been my guess since I don't recognize any of the cast.
Yeah,
Spaceballs is indeed a 1987 film, and only grossed $38M compared to the $85M grossed by
Aliens. (The film we're looking for here broke $100M.) Maltin, by the way, awards
Spaceballs **½: "Likably silly parody of
Star Wars (years after the fact) is basically a collection of jokes, both verbal and visual. Enough of them are funny to make for pleasant, if not hilarious, fare. Surprisingly innocuous for Brooks and Co. ... " The cast there includes John Hurt.
