The only difference is that the sensor on a Rebel is only roughly 60% the size of a 35mm frame, so what you see through your viewfinder will correspond to what you would see on a film camera if you were using a 45-144mm lens.

The 35-80 off of my Rebel S II works on my 50D ;-)

Yes, the EF lenses will work on Canon digital cameras, but the EF lenses are designed for full-frame images; the EF-S lenses are designed for the APS-C image sensors. So the EF lenses on a T3i or T5i will not provide the same images that you had with the film camera; the quality will be there, but the content will be smaller at a given distance.
