Geocache Description:

This small cinema (originally 5 screens, now 6) was opened in September 1990, making it older than any of the current cinemas in Belfast. It still remains popular and is situated beside the Glengormley Sportsbowl and numerous eating establishments.


This is one of a series of mystery caches placed near cinemas that use alphametic puzzles with movie title answers to hide the cache location. Others in the series:
 

Cinemetics: Dublin Road

Cinemetics: Bangor Omniplex

Cinemetics: Kennedy Centre

Cinemetics: Odeon at Victoria Square

Cinemetics: Odyssey

Cinemetics: Omniplex Dundonald

Cinemetics: Cityside at Yorkgate

 THE PUZZLE

Solve the "cinemetic" puzzle to discover the location of this mystery cache!

Each letter represents a single digit from 0-9.

          C O W               B O Y              O R

      + T O S S           + S A Y        + S O B

         O W E S             C O B          S E W

 

FILM TITLE: 12731267

The cache can be found at:

If the film is from the 80's: N 54° 40.WER W 005° 57. EAO

If the film is from the 90's: N 54° 40.TRW W 005° 57.BSY

If the film is from the 00's: N 54° 40.SYC W 005° 57.BBS

Good luck!

 

A mystery word* can also be found in this puzzle. It is not required for finding this cache, but is a bit of fun, and may be required for future caches! You can find it once you have the film title. A 3 word phrase can be obtained from the equations above (one word from each equation), which has relevance to the film. Add these 3 words together *(and on this occasion only subtract 1 from your answer), and you have the mystery word!

THE CACHE

This is a microcache containing just a log sheet and pencil. Please take care when removing and replacing the log, and try to avoid being spotted by muggles, this can be quite a busy area. Please don't post any clues in your found logs, as obviously this may make the puzzle significantly easier for other cachers. Enjoy!
