The main complaint I heard was the same one you voiced, is that there wasn't enough of the secondary characters. This is one of those movies where the studio tried to make it general enough to appeal to the entire public but in doing so ending up losing the rabid loyalty of the fan base. Sure, we all still saw it, but if it had appealed to hardcore Simpsons fans more, we would have been buzzing about it, and there would have been more word-of-mouth, which is always good.
