The Dark Night Rises - Binary Opposites

Even though I have seen the entire film, their are many binary opposites just in the Dark Night Rises Trailer. I will be listing the various binary opposites and explaining why and how they are binary opposites along with where they can be seen when watching the trailer.

1) 0:11 - We see Batman driving through the night which hows the binary opposites 'Light and Darkness'. There would be light if everything was dark and vice versa. If it was always dark we wouldn't call it dark, we would just call it normal.

2) 0:44 - As the police appear and also too do the escaped prisoners we start to see the binary opposition of 'Good and Bad'. If there were only good people in the world, would they still be considered good if there were no bad people. They would be considered just to be regular people.

3) 1:10 - Snow starts to appear n gotham showing the cold temperatures which is a sign of the binary opposites 'Hot and Cold'. If it was always cold, it wouldn't be thought to be cold, its just the norm.

4) 1.27 - Bruce Wayne flies off in his Batwing flying machine, this shows his wealth which opens us to the binary opposites 'Rich and Poor'. When everyone has the same amount of wealth, there is no such thing as being rich poor.
