In 2019, we were all tweeting about Sonic's hideous human teeth and realistic design, but we didn't realise just how good we had it. Mario is getting his own movie next year and, while his face looks to be pretty standard, if a little uncanny, he has a flat ass - a very, very flat ass.
Sonic never had this problem. He can run 767 miles per hour and does so while avoiding robots and fighting back against Eggman. He's got a sprinter's dumpy with a little extra to show for it. Mario is a thick Italian plumber who spends most of his time jumping - why's he flat? That's what the internet's asking.

But he did have a little more oomph going for him in the cartoon and Paper Mario, so maybe we'll see some character growth if a second movie gets greenlit.
No ass, never had an ass, makes sense he doesn't have an ass -
