[Tweener] Applying filter after Tween results in movie shifting...

No clue, other than the fact that filters seem to behave differently 
depending on the scale of the parent container. I've had a number of 
problems like that in the past and my solution has been to have the 
filter always applied, only changing its radius or alpha.

The other thing I'd advise you is to tween the scale of a movieclip, and 
never the height (unless it's a class in which the "heigh" property has 
some special function). But it's unrelated to the problem.
