From Comments at the Kickstarter page:
The movie is actually already fully funded. The Kickstarter campaign is not so much about the money as it is about marketing.

2. We're very aware that we have a built-in "anti-Atlas" audience as well. We know from our experience with the first two films that there is an incredible amount of vitriol out there and, we have every intention of capitalizing on it this time around. The day we launch the Kickstarter campaign, those haters are going to come ALIVE. They're going to come after us in droves attacking us everywhere online. To them, we say thank you. Thank you for helping us spread the word. We're looking forward to the onslaught of all those negative blogs, facebook posts, and tweets.
ETA: Didn't someone in the book actually pull a stunt something like this? All that comes to mind is Dagny naming her venture "The John Galt Line" which probably got her some publicity.
