TV Buzz Thank you, Honda. From “The Hangover” director Todd Phillips, the commercial we’ve been waiting for is more like watching an adult Matthew Broderick go about his business than a grown-up version of our hero, Ferris. But who are we to complain? At the end of the day, it’s 2+ minutes of Broderick being funny among various “Ferris Buller’s Day Off” easter eggs — all set to the classic 80s “Ohhhh yeah” song by Yello.
Culture Buzz Beloit College released their annual Mindset List, designed to help prevent their staff from making cultural references that the incoming class won't recognize, and it's depressing as ever. These are only 20 of the 75 ways that the graduating class of 2015 will drive you to booze and Propecia. At least we have another year before the incoming class can say that Kurt Cobain has always been dead.
Culture Buzz Artist Maxim Dalton made a fully playable board game version of “Ferris Bueller's Day Off.” It's part of a tribute show dedicated to John Hughes. Not quite as fun is Hungry Hungry Uncle Bucks.

Culture Buzz Artist Mina Karimi is organizing a recreation of the “Twist and Shout” scene from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off in time for New York’s famed Greenwich Village Halloween Parade. Participants can choose any character from the original scene to impersonate, finally giving some of us a reason to borrow our mom’s shoulder-padded, triangular business suits.
