It’s not really fair to criticize the average Jeopardy! contestant, since even the smarted person could go in and get destroyed by its brutal rules and annoying insistence on quizzing people about European monarchies, but Wolf Blitzer wasn’t the average Jeopardy! contestant when he appeared on a celebrity edition of…

Michael B. Jordan’s time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is probably over, barring some flashback scenes in the Black Panther sequel or a weird side effect of the snap heard ’round existence at the end of Avengers: Infinity War.
