I think Isleh makes a very prudent point here. Lucas has, no doubt, had lapses in consistancy of his own story simply due to the fact of how long it took to make it and put it on the big screen. The story is much more consistant in Episodes 4-6 because that's all he had to worry about. Wait this many years then go back trying to remember what it was suppose to all be about and, really, only the story floating around in Lucas's webby brain really makes sense to himself at this point I believe.
The biggest problems seem to be...
1) This whole midoclorian business. It takes away from the mysticism.
2) Just how does Palpatine's story and Anakin's birth tie in? And the problems that go along with that being a true part of the story.
3) The inconsistancy of Leia's knowledge of her 'real' mother.
4) The blue glowie business.
5) Where the boundaries of Jedi superheroism ends and a more 'rooted' physical world begins.
At least a 'few' problems with this puppy anyway.
