Honda just launched “Matthew’s Day Off”, an extended version of their upcoming Super Bowl commercial. (You might have seen the 10 second teaser, which went viral last week.) Directed by Todd Philips (The Hangover), it’s not just a regular commercial, it’s a 2:20 mini-movie. In the video, Matthew takes a day off work in his all-new 2012 CR-V to do all of the things he wants to do.

The video ties into Honda’s ongoing “Leap List” campaign for their all-new 2012 CR-V, which encourages their audience to do the things they’ve always wanted to do before they make the next big leap in life. (As Broderick’s character says – “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.”

“Easter eggs” from the original film are hidden throughout the spot. Here’s where you can find a few to help get you started — there are dozens of others to find.

• The name on the Bluetooth screen is Grace (Rooney’s secretary) (0:54)
• There is a guy in a trench coat playing clarinet (1:00)
• The flower delivery guy is a reference to a famous scene in the movie (0:57)
