I ave a serious sociological question about Godzilla, no kidding.

And is Godzilla, in China, still considered a metaphor for American military action, did the metaphor translate the same way?

I just realized that even as a huge kaiju and Godzilla fan, I don't know. China may have viewed the character in a whole different light.

Godzilla is not that well known in China. The early films were unlikely to have been shown at the time for political reasons.

IMDB does not list a Chinese release date for the ’54 Godzilla. (Though it was released in Taiwan in 55)
