I am now picturing NoNoseMan sitting their waving his silly little stick and saying what ever sounds kinda cool in latin. Then He turns to the 4th wall and starts bragging about how He KILLED t he Big Monster with the Silly Curse and in the last panel The Big Monster falls on him and squashes him like a bug under a tank.
HAHAHAHAH!
Harry Potter is for Silly Little Children.
If AK doesn't work then Voldemort is completely outmatched here, so we better assume it could work.
Spells get blocked by physical objects all the time in the HP verse, so the real question here is whether radiation could block it, because we have seen Godzilla being so hot that steel melts around him in real time. I wonder if little spells could get through that at all.
Other than that, Voldemort has a quicker draw as Legendary Goji needs to charge his atomic breath.

That's never mentioned. Dragons are resistant to magic, but whether they (or any other living being for that matter) have resistance to the killing curse is never said. Of course, the curse isn't all powerful and it certainly has limits. I'm inclined to think it wouldn't affect Godzilla.
Correction: dragons were resistant to stunning magic. We hear that Krum's curse worked on the dragon just fine.
Stunning someone is a physical spell and it makes sense a durable creature would be resistant. Hagrid was resistant to stunning as well.
The AK was more than physical. It surely isn't all powerful, but question is based on what criteria should we grant immunity? "Is physically tough" is ehhh, can movie versions of Superman tank the AK?(I specified this cuz he has shown no magic weakness). If not, what is the minimum level of durability needed to survive it?
If you're basing it on size, what is the largest creature the AK could work on? Surely not merely a human.
Krum's curse is a specialized spell that attacks the target's eyes. The reason he used it is because dragon's eyes are vulnerable to magic unlike their hides. In fact, Sirius intended to recommend that Harry use the same spell for this very reason.
As for AK, I don't know what its limits are for certain only that it does have them. However, there stands to reason that certain magical creatures are in fact resistant to it. Their is only a single instance of a Chimera being defeated 1v1 by a wizard and apparently it takes over 100 wizards working together to defeat a Nundu. If something as relatively simple as an AK could kill these creatures, then this shouldn't be the case.

I don't remember the exact wording Sirius used; but he clearly intended for Harry to cast a spell at the eyes and not shoot them with a gun. So he would be referring to their vulnerability to magic regardless of the exact wording.
The eyes being vulnerable doesn't mean it was cuz magic was specifically used.
Either way, there is zero evidence dragons are resistant to anything besides stunning spells.

It's straight up mentioned that their hides are resistant to magic which makes them incredibly difficult to slay...
