Like others have said, I'm not even passing judgement on the movie. But if we're looking for the moment that Simpsons went from passion project to soulless moneymaker, it would be the movie, because that's the most clear cut moment where Groening flat out says the decision to not wait until the show was over was driven by ratings:

Around what season of the simpsons was when the movie came out? Yeah the movie was above avg. Still better than most hollywood trash and comdies. But current simpsons is pretty bad. Their ratings are abysmal aren't they?
