V'Ger, Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979)
An amorphous cloud wipes out a whole fleet of Klingons, thereby inspiring Captain Kirk to come out of semi-retirement. Kirk or no Kirk, this mysterious miasma (which calls itself V'Ger) continues to head towards Earth and gobble up every ship in its path. Why? It's a case of lovesickness actually. V'Ger is actually a wayward Voyager probe, now self-aware and looking for a human mate. So Kirk, the sly devil, offers up Decker -- his rival for the captain's chair -- and the newly mated satellite sails off happily into the cosmos.
