So what are the as-yet unresolved issues, is Palpatine/Emporer actually Anakin's father as was Vader to Luke? How does the Empire go from being good to bad, and the Rebellion go from being bad to good? Others?

Conspiracy of a few within the senate with the Trade Federation birthed the "Empire" from the Senate. The Emperor dissolved the Senate in Episode IV. The "Rebellion" in Eps IV thru VI did not exist in Eps I and II; perhaps we'll witness the birth of the Rebellion in Ep III.
Anakin does not have a physical father. He was conceived through "the Force" and was destined to be the fulfillment of the prophecy to bring balance to the Force (which could either be for good or for evil), but that balance ultimately came through his son rather than thru him directly (those prophecies can be tricky things - as Joss Whedon has shown us in BTVS and Angel).
