Lip Sync Animation, PLEASE Critique

Nice start.

I dont understand the gesture he does on "beady". Is he throwing an imaginary eye on the ground? I dont get it.
I think his 'point' at the colonel floats there too long.
I love the tossing the paper on the ground. Cute.
What if he was holding the paper with his thumb and index finger only, as if it was icky, and he doesn't like the thought of touching it.
His little flappy 'buy my chicken ohhhhhh' dance could use some polish.
I think for 'buy my chicken' he should thrust the picture into the camera and sort of pantomime with it, before crumpling it up. IMO
Final pose could be stronger. A sulking arms-crossed stance or something? I dunno.
Good work there.

I had quite a time finding the animation. Might just be my system, though. Anyways, the lip-sync seems to lag a bit; it's more noticable towards the end (after "beady eye"). The lip-syncing seems fine otherwise. Maybe some more body animation? The voice suggests a more forceful personality, and a little more anger.
