Just a short review here, given that the film is just a three-minute short that landed on Disney Plus on Star Wars day of 2021.

Continuing the trend of Maggie Simpson shorts revolving around the daycare facility, this time she forgoes the Ayn Rand school and instead is dropped at the Star Wars themed one next door. Inside, Asoka is given unruly children a time out in Carbonite and the many limbs of General Grievous are used to change diapers. Maggie comes to clash with her old nemesis Gerald, who now is in a form of a classic Sith Lord.

Without wishing to go too far in either direction, this short is in a word, alright. There are a number of mildly amusing little ideas and cameos in the three-minute runtime, but nothing coming anything close to the type of invention that we've seen "Robot Chicken" or "Family Guy" delve into over the years. I really felt the ending could have been much better, but I applaud the effort even if the previous Maggie shorts have been much better.

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.
