Assuming the shoebox pill couldn't be used for more pills (such as, more shoebox pills)...

Groundhog Day pill + 5 months experience pill, could be pretty good.

Maybe sounds like the art from Fantastic Planet?

Probably not in the way you mean. There are certainly movies that benefit from watching again, whether to fully understand what is going on - often involved convoluted plots or a twist that adds new context to all the scenes, or because each individual shot/scene has so much going on that you're always catching some new detail. And I do think those aspects are mostly intentional.

Well, there's two ways you could interpret that:

  • As you say, 'shelf life', how long they can sell the game with their voice in it
  • Or, 'voice time', as in, contracts are negotiated in total duration of voice lines. Exceeding that number requires renegotiation.

I suspect it's the latter as that is more similar to how voice work is already done, to my understanding.

Yeah, I think a goal can be okay as a rough benchmark for how much you would like to be reading generally. It's when the goal works to the detriment of your own enjoyment that it's an issue. I don't bother counting because I'm reading at a pace that works for me currently.
