Earth was spared but all Asgardians, including Thor in full-power mode, were gone. Thor himself fulfilled the never ending cycle of Ragnarok. In 2007, Thor (and alter ego Dr. Donald Blake) “returned” and Loki was reincarnated as a lady, but still mischievous and ruthless as ever. And Asgard was floating over Oklahoma.

I am really content that many elements of Planet Hulk were infused due to the fact the overall design of Hulk’s gladiatorial armors, planet Sakaar, and some of the gladiators there were co-created by Pinoy artist Carlo Pagulayan.

And yes, I concur Thor Ragnarok is the best Thor movie yet. I didn’t need to watch the second end credit because I prefer the comics Grandmaster than the MCU version (more intelligent, cunning, strategic and most importantly, not a buffoon).
