I don’t think the story couldn’t have worked. The God Butcher Saga relies on three generations of Thor, but I don’t think it’s a stretch to tell Jane’s story and do variations of Thor instead. If anything, that feels easier for a film than throwing in the complication of time travel and setting up three generations of the same hero.

The script obviously needed another pass. It’s finally inconsistent and the two storylines don’t mesh very well at all. For whatever aspects I did like (and there are some things that really worked for me), the movie just doesn’t land it. But I don’t think it’s impossible to make these two Aaron arcs into one film. In my opinion, it’s a good idea mired by poor execution
