I would say wait a bit. It's a good movie, yeah, but I haven't seen any memes come out of it yet.

On a related note, some SJW types were apparently calling the movie "racist" for having gorilla characters that are gangsters who end up in jail. My response to that is "wait aren't you the ones being racist if your first reaction to seeing anthropomorphic gorillas in a family film is to immediately think they're supposed to be the film's 'black characters'?" Here's a video on the subject:

Also if anything Meena and her elephant family struck me as the "black characters" of the movie, as her mom and grandpa sounded like they came out of the Klump family.
