I don't exactly agree with a lot of Alan Moore's opinions regarding adaptations of his work, but I'm positive that it's against this website's rules to trope real-life people, and it's a bit rude to suggest the creator is a jerk for disliking the adaptation, as some cases of Disowned Adaptation have made it clear that the creator not appreciating the adaptation's changes is completely justified.
