Will the Real Godzilla Please Stand Up?

Almost everyone has heard of Godzilla, even if they’ve never seen a Godzilla movie. What most people don’t know is the famous monster’s connection to nuclear weapons. Sixty-five years and 35 movies after its 1954 debut, Godzilla is still a mainstay in our summer movie rotation, but its origins have been all but erased.

Read the accompanying article in Inkstick: inkstickmedia.com/will-the-real-go…please-stand-up/
