Haha, impressive trick with the owl! :D
I think you've got a very good style in your run.
Anyway, here's some nitpicking:
It seems that you autofired the X-button to speed up the text boxes. Would it not have been slightly faster to seek the earliest frame manually?
Also, are you sure that there is no single frame in the whole movie where
releasing the run button would save time? For example, I would imagine that when you need to move like this (like when collecting an item or something)

there's a small chance that you save time if you release the run button before you turn back to the left, because when you are running, you might move further to the right than necessary, thus slightly increasing the distance to backtrack. I'm not sure about it, though.
I think it is a nice idea to aim for high skill bonus, but I'm sure there are people who would prefer aiming for speed only. Either way, it is important to be consistent with the goals throughout the movie.
Overall, the levels look
very good and the boss fights look perfect. Good luck for the rest of the run!
