Finger Wag | comment |
A common Take That! gesture where someone lifts their hand, and wags their index finger, sometimes with a "tsk tsk tsk" clicking of the tongue or an "ah, ah, ah". The gesture is usually to say "No", "No you don't", or, when accompanied by a Villainous Smirk, "Nice try, sucker." The latter often occurs when a character thinks they have their adversary dead to rights, and they have an easy path to victory - unfortunately, it doesn't work, whether they run out of ammo, or the "victim" anticipated the attack. The Finger Wag is sometimes followed by a comeuppance of the wagger, when they've actually been defeated and just don't know it yet. Alternatively, it's often followed by a Bring It. Not to be confused with Flipping the Bird, or Giving Someone the Pointer Finger. The Declarative Finger can also sometimes be used in these situations. Contrast Bring It. |

Metal Sonic does this before the race against Sonic in Sonic the Hedgehog CD. This goes with his tendency to imitate Sonic's mannerisms and stances, being his evil robotic doppelganger who is obsessed with surpassing the real deal in every aspect. | |

Terminator 2: Judgment Day—Sarah tries to stop the T-1000 by blasting it with a heavy gauge shotgun, but after she runs out of shells the T-1000 puts itself back together and wordlessly wags a finger at her. It's even more creepy in context because this is one of the few times the T-1000 ever shows explicit emotion. | |

Diablo II: Lord of Destruction: The incredibly nervous elder representing Sescheron has just delivered a quavering You Shall Not Pass. Baal pauses for a moment as though he's genuinely thinking of turning his Army of Doom back down the mountain to find some other place to pillage... then promptly vaporises the elder's innards. He wags his finger with the words "It appears your terms are not acceptable", cackles and lays waste to the entire town. | |

Brutal gang leader Bill the Butcher does this randomly to Boss Tweed in Gangs of New York after the two have an argument about Tweed helping Irish immigrants, for whom Bill has a violent hatred, to win their votes for Tammany Hall. An odd variation in that it's done quickly, with movement from the entire arm, making it seem more aggressive and declarative than mocking, and suiting Bill's eccentric yet domineering personality. | |

The finger wag is seen multiple times Final Fantasy VI, though given sprite limitations it's hard to say whether they're wagging their index finger or Flipping the Bird. Specifically: Locke wags his finger to correct the old man who saves Terra at the beginning of the game when said old man addresses him as a "thief". Edgar introduces himself to Terra in this manner while saying: "How rude of me to turn my back on a lady!" |

Sonic the Hedgehog: Sonic wags his finger on the title screens of most of the Mega Drive era games. It's his signature pose, and how he finishes his Dynamic Entry late in the Subspace Emissary mode in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. In Sonic the Hedgehog: Triple Trouble, Fang mockingly wags his finger at Sonic multiple times before facing him, and directly at the player in the "not all Emeralds collected" ending. This is usually followed by something funnily misfortunate happening to him, like accidentally burning himself or running away in a panic when Eggman comes for Sonic. Metal Sonic does this before the race against Sonic in Sonic the Hedgehog CD. This goes with his tendency to imitate Sonic's mannerisms and stances, being his evil robotic doppelganger who is obsessed with surpassing the real deal in every aspect. |

The Bolt Chronicles: In "The Coffee Shop," Penny shakes her finger scoldingly at Bolt for his bad behavior, specifically because the dog has been begging for treats at the title venue and eating from the garbage at home, which has caused him to put on weight. In "The Clouds," Soapy indecently propositions a woman who has just exited the diner nearby, hoping he'll get arrested. She angrily shakes her finger at him in response, saying "Just who do you think you’re talking to, buster? If you don't apologize to me right this instant, I'll drag you to the police station around the corner myself!" |

Ace Attorney: Phoenix Wright (the player character), being a defense attorney whose clients all tend to look incredibly guilty at first glance, is constantly at the receiving end of condescending finger wags from the Von Karma family (and Edgeworth, who was raised in it) as they counter his arguments, making it all that more satisfying to slowly turn the case around and watch their composure break. It's a condescending gesture Edgeworth picked up from his mentor, Von Karma, although after learning that Von Karma was the one who actually murdered his father and tried to pin it on him he does this less, perhaps as a way of distancing himself from his former mentor and showing that he has grown as an individual. | |

When Captain America faces Lady Deathstrike in a movie theater full of hostages, he tries to trick her into hitting the door with her claws to release the hostages. She notices at the last second and does the finger wag to Cap, followed by saying "Nice try". Made extra effective by Deathstrike's fingers being about two feet long. | |
