Blue Curtaining 

When a writer or director is asked afterwards if a certain aspect of their work is intentionally symbolical or meaningful in the larger context of their story and they confirm it, even though in reality they never intended for that to be the case.
Did you know that the author said the blue curtains in that scene represent the emotional state of the character?

I don't know man, that sounds like blue curtaining to me.

Blue-curtainism 

The belief that there is nothing more to art than surface-level interpretation and that anyone who tries to find deeper meaning is an idiot, a practice of anti-intellectualism.
"Why do you even care about symbolism and themes? The curtains are just blue!"

bluecurtaining 

To bullshit an English assignment.
Originates from the meme in which English teachers interpret "the curtains were blue" to mean "the curtains represent his depression and lack of will to carry on."
I'm bluecurtaining that essay on Macbeth.
She bluecurtained her English exam.
