Youll also want to add Independence Day. Quite the popular movie. Maybe even Mars Attacks! or Armageddon Sky.

Incubus with William Shatner. Maybe not exactly sci-fi, but it's a good classic B-movie

Oh, I seeeeeeeee. That makes *some* sense,  Although bees only seem to pollinate plants with blossoms/flowers. Maybe I'm wrong.... anywho.

Spaceballs cracked me up, and Galaxy Quest also amused me immensely.
