It's almost as though they were trying to copy the Skyfall look for Spectre, since it was pretty much universally praised, but didn't quite know how to do it, and ended up with the awful muted look that they ended up with.
With SP, the piss colouring was a filter rather than emanating from the room lighting.
I agree @Dalton, bloody annoying and a terrible creative decision in my view, because it's so similar to all the CGI garbage in most of the Marvel/DC output. If you see the trailer for Assassin's Creed starring Michael Fassbender, you can see the same look throughout all the CGI landscape scenes.
That seemed to be the biggest difference. Also, and this may be a result of the difference between two techniques used (I'm far from an expert on lighting and such things) is that the picture in SF appears to be quite sharp, whereas the look of SP appears to be quite dull, even in places such as Austria where the snow and the modern architecture of the clinic should have provided a beautiful and sharp look that ultimately wasn't there.

I found the Lotus Esprit & Aston DBS (OHMSS) just as iconic, but I was not around when GF was released, and given that was the first gadget laden car for Bond, I can imagine that it probably is more memorable for most.
At least, that's how I see it.
Yes, but it does have its roots in literary Bond - Bond has a DB3 in Goldfinger.
It's a wonderful car.
of a gap for a Trademark ;) might as well bring back the trilby hat, with it
being flung on to the coat stand.
Although only my opinion, if you love the car, keep on loving. :)
Only absent in the 70s, I believe. The age of muscle cars, which I am far from being fond of.
Also in Bond's wotld, I can't see him putting on a pair of overalls, to get under the DB5
at weekends, to fix some problem or other.
;)
But he does drive a DB3 in Goldfinger, hence the DB5 in the film, it was still in early stages of production when EON came to use it.
Yes but one assumes they were just updating what was in the novel.
a neighbours car, fitted out for time trials, that inspired Fleming to use the car. So
according to them it was infact a DB2 mkiii, which Fleming misnamed as a DB3 . :)
I thought it was an interesting bit of trivia.
