I think it can be done well (Rick/Evie from the Mummy movies, Ivan/Victoria from RED, Ancelyn/Bambera from Classic Who, for my off-the-top-of-my-head picks), but yes, those are possibly exceptions that prove the rule. Even with canon pairs I ship, it's hard to find ones that are consistently well written across their canons.

Mind you, the same is often true of the fanfic. Some pairs are worse for dodgy characterisation and rush-to-the-porn than others, but a lot of them do suffer from those problems in fandom.

Rick/Evie was written so badly in the third Mummy movie. It was horrific. They went against every ounce of characterisation that the first movie set up so well, just for some unconvincing plot point that made no sense.

AYRT

I usually pretend the third one doesn't exist. Mostly because they changed Evie. If it's not Rachel Weisz, it doesn't count.

The action scenes were mostly okay, but I really wish I hadn't seen Mummy 3 because it tainted Rick/Evie for me always. The first five minutes was so good! I wish they'd just stuck with the ancient Chinese side of it.

The third one doesn't exist. I mean, not even the franchise acknowledges it most of the time; the single box Mummy collector's set actually has The Mummy, The Mummy Returns, and The Scorpion King.
