Oil Change Help Filter Stuck

Well the Yaris is my first car that I've bought, and I want to do the maintenance on it. I've read up in the Oil change thread of how to do it.

The problem is I can't get the oil filter off. It is a firestone filter so I know it's been changed at least once before (I'm at 30,000) and hopefully more often. Should I just get a clamp and just haul on it? The problem is I saw this video on youtube

and I don't want this to happen to me. Are there any tricks or any advice?

Many thanks in advance.
