Monsters Inc. contains a certain character called Mike. He only has one eye, therefore it was obvious to me that in order to gain certain facial expressions and body language i should look into how this is portrayed.

The above link is a short clip in which he has a new car. Towards the end of the animation, Mike starts to get annoyed with his friend and uses his forhead creases to show that he is getting angry. The creased forehead is instead of an eyebrow. As the majority of the expressions come from the eyebrow or creased forehead it is essential that i choose correctly what one i will choose for Gooey Goo.
It is not only the creased forehead that creates expression for Mike, it is also the eye lids. If the top one is slightly covering his cornea this usually shows that the character is quite angry/moody.
