Well exactly, you just proved my point ;-)

The second shot you linked to ^ (I'm guessing to show I was wrong and that the grading is good in skyfall?)... this one:

Also I suspect that the almost supernatural levels of grey fog have been digitally enhanced. But I agree the grading is more natural here than the shots I selected above. It's an outdoor scene in natural daylight so they couldn't mess with it too much. Unlike night scenes in the same environment like this where they can go crazy with the colour:

I'm not saying there isn't beauty in there, in the same way that a Disney film looks absolutely beautiful.
