Last night I felt that I needed to be humorously entertained; I revisited 'Thor: Ragnarok', in (((3-Dimensional))) visuals. It is the third one of the series, the most humorous one, with the excellent Cate Blanchett as the villain, a beautiful villain with beautiful costumes. It's more a funny flick than anything else, with nice decor sets and locales, colorful, just good fun from this 3rd in the series (and not the last) to keep my mind out of the aftermath of WW3 if ever it comes to that point (I've been reading some).

"In 1949, after the unleashing of nuclear weaponry at the end of WWII, physicist Albert Einstein suggested that any outcome of a possible WWIII would be so dire as to revert mankind back to the Stone Age. When asked by journalist Alfred Werner, what types of weapons Einstein believed World War III might be fought with, Einstein warned, "I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones". It can be inferred here that Einstein assumed that World War III would either exterminate, or else nearly exterminate the human race (presumably due to nuclear warfare).[verification needed]

Past examples have often led to war, and in this case World War Three is possible but not inevitable."
