@Marcus Gonzales It's not going to, but it is fully deserving. Roma is completely deserving too.

[@aaquishsidhik2888]

So this is what cinematography means. I remember seeing most of the films in this video and at certain points - I had this emotion inside me. This strange and a certain kind of feeling that I only had watching some amazing shots. Now I understand why. The cinematography. And all these years, I've failed to give a name to it. But now I have - brilliance. Absolute brilliance in seeing something in mind so that the audience could see it in a screen. What a remarkable skill. And to think that Oscars was going to give them during the break? Shame.

[@elizabeth3588]

In a way, I feel that cinematography is more important than any best actress or actor category. These cinematographers can invoke feelings in audiences more than just a actor playing a part. (although they’re very important to the story)

[@johnl6192]

Fellowship of the Ring has got to be one of the best-looking movies ever made. Beautiful looking film.

Although I didn't appreciate the story and plot in Roma because I couldn't connect with the Mexican roots of the film, the cinematography is perfect, you can pause it at any time and it's a million dollar painting. Cuaron has this

As a Mexican, I can assure you that she faithfully portrayed the way of life of the Mexican, not the sweetened one that the media imposed on you (subject to the tastes of politicians, businessmen and celebrities).

I'm sure a person from a different country would react the same way to movies strongly linked with America, and that's completely understandable.

[@zhenghu_m]

Roma's Cinematography was excellent, but I personally prefer The Favourite because every shot is like a painting of that period of time (and taking the risk of using wide angle lenses), whiles Roma only appeals to Nostalgia by using BW photography, but many movies have done the similar thing and they were not even nominated to an oscar on such categories even by using pretty innovative methods of lighting (The White Ribbon, for example). On screenplay, the Favourite definitively is one of appreciation, more than Roma (using the excuse that has no plot or it can be related to the life of anybody is not an argument because there are tons of movies who has done this, even with the masterfully use of psychological connotations summed with social behaviour and historical events on account, like most of Haneke's Movies like the White Ribbon, Amour, Le Temps du Loup, The Seventh Continent, Happy End and so on). The same thing goes to the Favourite on Production and Custom Design, even when you Say that Roma did an spectacular job on recreating the mexico of that period, if you go to Mexico you will realize that the City already looks like that. The crew only added some little details that have been gone a while ago, but with the Favourite, they recreated a whole era within its tiniest detail.

[@LordJagd]

Totally agree, it's crazy that people don't think to use natural light with period pieces like The Favourite did since those castles and gardens were made with natural sunlight in mind!

Although I think Roma is highly deserving, I prefer the cinematography of The Favourite. A lot of that may be due to the production design though.
