Transmission Removal

Okay so I have the engine out and am attempting to remove the trans from the engine. I thought it was as simple as remove the 5 bolts holding the bell housing to the engine and disconnect the plugs and it should pop right off. I've got it to pull back about an inch from the motor but its acting like its stuck on something. Do I just need to pull harder or did I miss something?

Couldn't get Darkside's link to work, but this one seems to be good....

At first it might seem complicated, but it gets easier every time you do it. .
