Vinny mentioned the Rescue Rangers movie "with the goose." There wasn't one of those, but I bet he's thinking of the Rescuers movie series. Rescue Rangers was originally pitched as a tv series version of the Rescuers to coincide with the Rescuers Down Under movie which had come out around the same time. It was ultimately decided to rework the show with classic characters, so Bernard was split into Chip and Dale, Bianca became a new character known as Gadget, and Jake the kangaroo rat became another newcomer, Monterey Jack. The "goose" Vinny is thinking of is Wilbur the albatross, played by John Candy in Rescuers Down Under. I suppose his role was simply cut. Or he became the blimp, I guess.
