Final product for mouth opening:

Thx 4 reading!
Hope it helps!

talking is useless unless you are trying to re-enact stickfigures on crack

and i was always told you had to resize the mouth thing

icebox is right though if i were to have talking i would do speech buubles lol

ice box was right i'd used use speech bubbles lol.

sad, what's the point in making them talk, simply include text. no need to make stupid lines, or speech bubbles. noobs

No thank you .

That isnt even a good looking way to talk.

There are much better ways.

It's almost as if u peeked inside my animations folder :)
Or unless u r making a series of Jackass clips, then u need talking.
Hey, u need someone to say "this is --insert random name here-- and u r watching Jackass"
And wat better ways r there?

Which was one of the best, abiet stupid, pivot randomities.

nah, talking can be used for other things, but to make it look rly good, this style doesnt work so well.

the bestest style is actualy making stk.s for it like shaped like a mouth and it closing and almost closed then nothing

Wow never tried it like that. Cool Tut

lol, looks kinda like a simpsons mouth

well i like the idea of the mouth but instead of the stick moving in and out it would look better if it got skinnier and fatter then it would look more like its closing

this is actually cool even tho you would have to add sound which would take sum time its prettty cool

You can so make them talk with voices on pivot!
Go to Windows Movie Maker And record your voice on a microphone then upload them so he speaks!

Why are you so obsessed with The Pirate?

I don't understand why someone would need this, but you never know. I always thought it was self explanatory how those mouth movements were done.
