DAMN YOU HONDA!!!! Don't toy with us like that!

EXCLUSIVE: Ferris Bueller's Mysterious Super Bowl Ad Is For Honda

EXCLUSIVE: Ferris Bueller’s Mysterious Super Bowl Ad Is For Honda

There's a lot of buzz right now for the clip above showing Matthew Broderick appearing to be a grown-up Ferris Bueller (bow-bow-chik-chika-chika sound effect included) looking to skip work for another day off.

While everyone thinks it's a teaser for a sequel to the hit flick "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" only Jalopnik can tell you it's not. No, it's for Honda. And that's not all.
A source familiar with Honda's operations hinted to us earlier this year that the company was going to do a Ferris Bueller-style ad for the Super Bowl starring none other than Matthew Broderick.

The source also added that the spot was going to mimic much of the original film, except this time prominently featuring Hondas. The big jump the two valets do in Cameron's dad's Ferrari? We hear this time it's going to be a Honda CR-V.

Honda is pouring a lot of money into this ad and, according to our source, hired The Hangover writer/director Todd Phillips to put it all together.


See the clip that's got everyone buzzing below.
So mad right now... I saw the video this morning and I got all excited for a Ferris Bueller sequel.

You guys realy wanted a sequel? I'm actually relived, all hollywood does nowadays is churn out crapy sequels or remakes. Seriously can you think of any sequels in the last 5-10 years were better or even as good as the original? A ferris sequel would just suck, so leave it alone.

Resident Evil? I liked all the sequels better than the first.


I thought a Ferris Bueller Sequel would have been great. Not so much a sequel as just a older version of the story, skipping work instead of school.

It`s pretty much a guarantee that this would never top the original, but I think it could still work. I`d pay to see it. Especially with a lot of really bad movies these days, this could not be any worse (hopefully).
