She's an amazingly talented actress and has the skills for it. She deserves MUCH MORE credit for how talented she is! Maybe she'll get more credit for being a talented actress in up upcoming film The Death and Life of John F. Donovan that features an entire A-List cast such as Natalie Portman, Susan Sarandon, Kathy Bates, Jessica Chastain, just to name a few.

She definitely deserves it. Bella's such an amazingly phenomenal actress and has a lot of onscreen presence and charisma. Besides, there are a lot of A-listers who are completely talentless and have little to no skills, so why shouldn't somebody as talented as Bella be an A-lister?
There are a lot of Disney Channel stars who deserve to be A-listers but aren't because Hollywood won't take them seriously because of their Disney Channel careers. Anneliese van der Pol and Bridgit Mendler come to mind (such amazingly talented women). It's ridiculous.
