Not very often, no, but not just because I know how they will end. I watch movies for the experience. If I want to have that experience again, I rewatch a movie. Birdman was an amazing experience to watch in theatres so I rewatched that later on, finding new details along the way while still being immersed in the story.

Rewatching is not the same experience as having a movie spoiled even though the information you have going in is similar. Because SW:TFA was spoiled for me I didn't have that sweet and rare experience of going in completely blind and enjoying a movie for what it's worth - nor can I relive that experience by rewatching.
