OP

They write movie-Steve/Tony with the exact same characterization as comics-Steve/Tony, despite the fact that the movie-Steve/Tony relationship resembles Han/Luke a lot more than it resembles comics-Steve/Tony.

Absolutely nothing wrong with shipping Han/Luke, or movie-Steve/Tony, but jfc, take the actual personalities and dynamic they display onscreen in the movie into account when writing fic.

That's honestly interesting as a reading on fans' take on the pairing because I've found, by and large, that when fans write movie Tony and Steve they actually don't come across like comic Tony and Steve at all. But they also don't come across as how they're characterised in the movie. Instead it's this sort of pasting on of names and faces onto stereotypes and tropes to the point where neither Tony nor Steve are recognisable as themselves in any form; not as comics Tony and Steve, or the Han/Luke kind of dynamic you describe seeing in their movie incarnations.

Maybe it's just, to me, I see a general disinterest in who these characters actually are and their dynamic and relationship with/toward one another, and instead just blanket OOC writing that is treated as acceptable because so many people do it now.

I'm actually not saying that you're wrong, just to clarify, I actually think your "jfc take the actual personalities and dynamic they display" is spot on, but I'm actually not convinced they're written like their comic selves because I'd actually have a degree of more patience for that rather than the "What the fuck is this?" reaction I more often find myself expressing toward 90% of fics I've read.
