Thor's sacrifice is what made the ending powerful. He gave up what he wanted (to return to Jane), to protect a race that hated him. He had evolved from a vain child to a true king who put others' needs ahead of his own. It should've been harder to overcome that sacrifice and Jane should've played a role in it, IMO.

I don't disagree, but don't you think him being on earth but choosing to focus on apprehending Loki and saving the planet instead of chasing after Jane also reinforces what he's learned to a pretty good extent?
