There's a lovely article on Cracked right now where they interview Dave Goelz, the puppeteer who performs the Great Gonzo, among others. Anyway, among the many revelations, there's a discussion about when he performed the Paul Williams' song "I'm Going to Go Back There Someday" for The Muppet Movie. During this part of the interview, Goelz says this: "I’ll tell you what Paul says. He identified with Gonzo as a flightless bird, and because of Paul’s stature, he said he always felt like that. He identified with that sort of predicament in life."
Obviously, the reason I'm posting this here is because Paul Williams is best known among our circles for performing Oswald Cobblepot, the Penguin, for BTAS and TNBA. I find it quite fitting that Paul Williams would come to embody the "flightless bird" for DCAU fans, and I'd be interested to hear if there was any interviews with Williams regarding his animated role.
