Ferris Bueller does the Super Bowl?

A 10-second teaser for an upcoming Super Bowl commercial shows a modern-day Matthew Broderickopening bedroom curtains, turning to the camera, and saying, “How can I handle work on a day like today?” Then the familiar “boom-boom-chick-chicka-chickah” music from the John Hughes movie plays over a black screen that reads, “2.5.12″ (the date of the Super Bowl).

So now everyone is wondering if the clip might indicate that a sequel to “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” is in the works. Not so. Reports indicate that it’s actually a sneak peek at a commercial for Honda. According to internet reports,  the commercial, which was directed by Todd Phillips of “The Hangover,” will feature a Honda CR-V doing the same kind of stunts Ferris and Cameron did in Cameron’s dad’s 1961 Ferrari 250GT California. Much of the commercial will mimick shots from the 1986 film.

The idea of the inspirational, rebellious, take-no-gruff Ferris driving a mini-SUV may seem a little sad to some….Judging by the buzz around the teaser, Ferris hasn’t lost his popularity. The sportos, the motorheads, geeks, bloods, wastoids, dweebies — they all adore him.

Who doesn’t love Ferris Bueller?
