The article is a lot about Politics in California (which is not to be talked about on the boards). But the interesting part of the article is that Marvel has basically put out there what their total budget it for Thor, Captain America, Iron Man 2 and The Avengers: A whopping $600 million for 4 films!
I know Iron Man is slated for a $140 million budget. If the three solo movies cost the same that leaves $180 for The Avengers! (probably will go to salaries)

Here's the excerpt or click on the link above for the entire article.

I've learned that Marvel Studios intends to keep $600 million in productions in the Los Angeles area if the state makes it worth their while -- Iron Man 2, Thor, Captain America, and Avengers which takes the slate through 2011. "They're willing to make a commitment to keep all four productions here in town. They're looking for existing studio space right now," Favreau told me.
