I wonder how comparable it is to the Olympics in London?

I knew many, many, many people that really weren't looking forward to the Olympics - having to change travel plans, busier commutes, more traffic etc etc. Not one of them had the same view afterwards ... I think everyone was amazed by the success and atmosphere during the games.
Now, I'm not saying that the Olympics and The Hobbit are comparable, but wonder if attitude towards each is the same (or at least similar)? They probably cause just as much disruption to locals.
Will people in Wellington with a negative (or neutral) opinion be "won" over? Will the benefits outweigh the negatives?
I'd love to be there, personally.
