Balle spaziali (Spaceballs) è un film parodia del 1987 prodotto, interpretato e diretto da Mel Brooks. È una commedia fantascientifica, parodia della saga di Star Wars e di altre famose serie di genere fantascientifico quali Star Trek, Alien e Il pianeta delle scimmie. Il film Balle spaziali 2 - La vendetta, che in originale si intitola Martians Go Home, non è in alcun modo opera di Brooks né ha nulla a che fare con Balle spaziali.
