Disney+ released a new Star Wars Simpsons crossover special, “The Force Awakens From Its Nap”, on May 4th, 2021. The May the Fourth weekend is traditionally a fan celebration of the Star Wars franchise, and is sometimes extended to include Revenge of the Fifth – all plays on various Star Wars phrases and film titles.
With the Simpsons writers being fellow nerds, it’s totally expected to find Easter Eggs and hidden messages in shows. This Special was no exception with several Easter Eggs, bit only one message written in Aurbesh (the Star Wars language).
The letters above the blackboard are just the alphabet, as you would find in a classroom. The message written on the chalkboard translates to “Good job, Nerds! You figured it out.” Not quite as funny as we might have hoped for, but still glad that they dropped a little something extra in for us.
