Given that it'll probably be very effects-heavy, and that the suit will be mostly CGI, then yeah, I'd say that's a fair ballpark.

Plus, Iron Man is an established character, with 30+ years of fans. And, it's a superhero movie, which tend to have fairly predictable returns. It's a safer bet for a studio to thrown a 100 mill at a movie they're pretty sure will make that much back, plus sell lots of toys and videogames and the like, than for them to put 100 mil into a big-screen version of a failed TV show, no matter how rabid it's (relatively) small fanbase may be.
