So many unsubtle 9/11 references. Why don't they just make a 9/11 movie?

I checked down to Homeland Security. So far I got:

8:46
The Hamburg Cell


Movies about the moments leading to 9/11, not 9/11.

A Few Days in September
Homeland Security (film)


Movies that have nothing to do with 9/11 despite referencing it. If at all.

9/11 (film)
The Flight That Fought Back
The Heart of Steel


Documentaries.

11'09"01 September 11
A Broken Sole


Short anthologies.

Brick Lane
DC 9/11: Time of Crisis
Dear John (2010 film)
Diverted
Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close
The Guys


Movies showing 9/11's aftermath, not 9/11.

Flight 93 (2006 film)


And the only one. Which I already knew about. Which only shows what happened on Flight 93.

Now save me the trouble and name a disaster film depicting 9/11 in the way Titanic, Pearl Harbor or this very same film, show the event that gives them their title. That's more difficult than copying and pasting a list from the internet.
