O Despertar com Força da Soneca

This was a rather pointless affair if truth be told.

Why it took so many writers to produce it I'll never know, because while yes, there are some nice visual gags, it's all rather pointless.

I don't mind these shorts if they are done well, but having Maggie as the focus of another one feels like extending a joke that didn't overly/just about worked previously and trying to make the 'magic' happen again.

More Simpsons content is always welcome, but it has to be done right, and I'm not sure this one really was when looked at on reflection.

I'm sure 'Star Wars' fans will look at it fondly. It has more gags than the sequel trilogy, that's for sure.

Better than the marvel one it was funny clever and very creative it was good but not the best good funny Short The marvel one was just awful not good at all.

This was probably what an intern had to turn in to try and keep their position. Storyless, pointless.

'The Force Awakens From Its Nap (2021)' is the latest short centred on Maggie Simpson, who finds herself dealing with all manner of things from a galaxy far, far away when she's dropped off at a Jedi daycare facility. It's a bizarre mash-up, for sure, and it comes across as very surface-level. I mean, it's a classic case of 'just because they can doesn't mean they should'. The thing doesn't really have a proper story to it, instead being comprised of a few set-pieces and a whole heap of fan-service. It's just lazy, really. It's a far cry from Maggie's other two short films. 4/10.

This was just a short gag reel. There was no point to the story. Yeah, we get it, they're just messing around while making some extra bucks by using the platform's audience, hooking both The Simpsons fans and Star Wars fans for a few minutes. No objections to the commercially-driven format with these shorts, and the artwork is quite alright.

But we DO need something solid even under the most gone-bananas cartoons. Some underlying critisim, homage or appreciation. I don't see that in this one. It even lacks the proper setting of time and space (not talking about the SW time-space, but the one WE as the audience might take as a point of reference) to establish this on.

Family Guy does similar things, even crazier and nastier ones, but they have a sharp attitude, some eye from the outside, an element that brings with the joy of roasting a franchise.

The Simpsons merging with Star Wars is... Well... Pot not even calling the kettle black...
