Not sure what file expert is but have you checked the permissions?
If you have root explorer or es file explorer you long press on your animation and goto properties and it should say "permissions. Rw-- r- r" if not you have to change them to match
Like this

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

Your supposed to move the file to system/data/local for mikg
Also the boot animation should be named bootanimation.zip, hopefully this helps....

How did you get that "shutdown" menu? I am desperately missing the reboot option when pressing the power button?

It has more than 500 frames.
Lowering the size would compromise image quality.
Check the Holiday Boot animation from Moto. Its more than 85 MBs.
