It looks like TCM has opened up the Ask Robert Osborne forum to any movie-related question.
So, here's your chance to ask Robert O all those movie questions you've been dying to know.
The web-cast is still scheduled for February 5th though that is subject to change.
So, go on over to TCM City and ask away!

I just have to say this kinda sorta ticks me off just a little bit.
I took a while to think of a couple Oscar questions only to have them open up the discussion to anything. If the troll who's been answering everyone's questions was the problem, I wish they'd have banned the so-and-so or else told people to e-mail or PM their questions to a private account. But I just wish they'd have kept the Oscar theme for this particular webcast, then broadened the field at another time.
But I do relish the opportunity and sincerely hope Osborne does engage the public this way in the future.

Scrowley,
I PM'd TCMWebAdmin about the problem with people answering questions in the forum (as well as the smart alecs).
They assured me that Robert Osborne won't be put off by the misbehavior in the forum and will evaluate all the questions for the webcast.
I think this forum was a learning experience for them.
