Twilight and New Moon star Kristen Stewart has certainly been through it lately, hasn't she? The subject of unending ridicule from various sources (including one which tactlessly used profanities in describing her personality - see here), whilst her success-o-meter skyrockets, Kristen Stewart deserves a positive news week this week (and fans hope that she'll get it).

In the place of various quips about her hair-do, the story this week should and hopefully will be that her latest film, Adventureland, is hitting the theaters this week, April 3 to be specific, and is being met with much anticipation by her fans.

The film, in which Kristen plays a wayward introvert who is the unlikely capturer of the heart of a want-to-be traveler stuck in what the film tag states to be "the worst job . . . ever imagined" which becomes "the best time of [the characters'] lives."

In a recent interview with Movies Online (see here), Kristen was asked whether she knew anyone like her character in Adventureland, Em Lewin, and she answered "I never met a terribly introverted and damaged girl at a theme park in the '80's." And she said she wasn't funny... Going on, when Kristen was speaking of her character and how she related to Em, she said "I like characters that are written that are whole, that doesn't feel like…[where] it's easy to tell what would be right and wrong and how they would feel about something because they're very defined."

Fans look forward to seeing Kristen in this fun and unique role, citing her diversity and strength as an actress. The coverage on Adventureland, thus far, did include a stab at Kristen about her wardrobe choices at the premiere (see here), but let's hope that Kristen's week is not riddled with criticism (at least not nonconstructive, unfounded, and unnecessary criticism).

So, tell us, are you looking forward to Adventureland's release? Comment below and let us know!
