I have mixed feelings about this.
I see nothing wrong with the active fan community that has built up around the Star Wars movies. I love the original trilogy myself. If I had the time, I think it would be a blast to participate in something like the 501st Legion, which is a great organization that spends a lot of time helping others in addition to having a great time in costume together. But it seems a little overboard worrying about the thrown-together sets that were never intended to be anything but temporary. In fact, I wonder why the production company was allowed to leave them abandoned and not required to clean up the place and leave it like they found it. Sure the Cantina was an actual building that was there long before the movie crew came and went, but a plaster igloo out in the desert seems like more of a distraction from the natruarl beauty of the desert than an object of pilgrimage.
