I'm not sure I ever really heard of there being 3 ways. Maybe I'm just misinformed.
But, I guess you could always do what Ohio did and just plain ignore the Supreme Court ruling. Way we fund schools is unconstitutional as judged by the Court? Oh well, we'll just leave it that way.
But, that's an interesting question, and I'm curious to see what the answer is.
I am unfamiliar with this feeling of optimism

Amend the Constitution itself. Then, instead of reviewing the law to determine its constitutional standing, judges must interpret the law when they are asked to decide disputes involving it.

No, some congressman from Kentucky tried to get a 2/3rd vote by both houses override law passed but I don't think it went very far...

No, I was referring to the amend the constitution part, which I think is 3/4 majority vote.

You can amend the Constitution.
Congress can also limit the court's jurisdiction to hear certain claims as well.
