Well, except that all those examples you cite were created as ongoing characters, not something for a self-contained miniseries. Watchmen is arguably the Citizen Kane of comics... a near-perfect classic story often held up as the zenith of its medium. I'd be just as upset if Warner decided to do Citizen Kane 2 or Poor Young Charlie Kane. It's a shameless cash grab.
That's fine, but I love the original, so an update by lesser creators is not for me. I lost a lot of respect for the creators involved. It's kind of skeevy and unprincipled for them to go in and work on this, knowing how Alan Moore feels he was screwed over.
