Movement cycles
Check out Domarius' animation reference footage
idleworm tutorial 2D walk cycle, contains useful info about focusing on contact points and recoil.
centre for animation & interactive media tutorial A variety of very different walk cycles, which can be viewed by rolling over with the mouse.
anticz tutorial Nice simple breakdown, re-affirming what's learnt in the previous links.

Curved paths in Motion Builder for smooth movement - Plot paths manually or with keyframes, and have objects follow the path. Not that useful because it doesn't work with limbs, but could be useful for prescripted anims.
