Yay! I'm so glad you saw it! And even more glad you liked it, especially as somebody who actually knows the comics well!
I do like to think that Charles' disappointment at Erik killing isn't so much that he'd really disapprove of Erik for killing the guy (he does basically hold the guy down so he can do it, even when the coin's going through his own head) but sadness at seeing that Erik is always going to believe that's the way to go. (Charles just gets proved wrong all over the place here.) He's not actually powerful enough to undo years of the Holocaust to get Erik to just let it go.
For some reason one of my favorite pieces of fanart for the pairing I've seen is a big shark with a single tear running down its face. On top of the shark is a little mouse petting him with a little mouse paw and saying, "Shhhh."
The director has apparently just come out and said he considered himself to be making a doomed romance so...yeah, that's pretty much what that is.
January Jones was totally Betty in lingerie. The flat affect works so well for me on Mad Men because she always seems like a little girl playing dress up in her mom's clothes, which is perfect for Betty. But here it was just flat and inappropriate.
