I was hoping it would go farther than it did, get nastier than the others, and it really was just more of the same. While there is somewhat of a story progression of the trilogy, you're good just seeing #2 the Snare or #3 Who's got the Gold? as both are stand alone films, more or less. Only #1 Sword of Justice leaves you hanging at the end. Other than that, each installment to the series revisits the same motifs and jokes.
Of course, if I dreamed of making a documentary on Iron Crotch, I would be forced to watch all three flicks in order, just to further solidify my expertise.
I started Zatoichi's Flashing Sword, which opens with the fly slicing scene. This film is from 1964 and I now wonder if it was the first reference to slicing flies with a sword.
