I am not going to judge Angela Bassett for the few seconds we saw.  I'm sure she was disappointed and then pulled it together.  She's a professional who has long been held to a very high standard that she has met again and again. 

She didn't even clap, at all. Not when JLC won and not when JLC's speech was done. You could clearly see AB in the front row.

I feel for Angela but these awards seasons follow a path.  Those with early momentum and those who get a late surge with the late surgers snagging the Oscar.  The same thing happened with Kodi Smit McPhee who won all the early awards but Troy Kotsur got a late surge, won the SAG and that was it.  

Also, a lot of the early awards just.don’t.matter. It’s the late guild awards that actually include samples of the Academy voting pool, and they’ve made it clear that they LOVE EEAAO.
