The 2020 live-action adaptation of Disney's Mulan sparked a wave of internet memes following its release on Disney+ Premier Access. Fans utilized the film’s serious tone and 'Loyal Brave True' motifs to create ironic commentary on the movie's removal of musical numbers and the beloved character Mushu. Most memes focus on the visual contrast between the animated original and this realistic reboot, often using Mulan’s stoic warrior expressions to represent disappointment, high-stakes pressure, or the 'expectation vs. reality' of modern cinematic remakes. It remains a popular template for fans of the franchise to voice their critiques or celebrate the iconic warrior's journey in a more grounded aesthetic.
