Star Trek vs. Star Wars has been a hot topic to debate amongs fans for a long time, and now John Boyega gets in on the mix.

For those that happen to follow William Shatner on Twitter, you know the actor is not known for holding his tongue.

Shatner has previously tweeted out that BB-8 is the new Jar Jar Binks, and Shatner previously released video of himself discussing how Star Trek is better than Star Wars.

Now Yahoo has filled in Boyega, who stars as Finn in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, about Shatner’s trolling.

Here is what Boyega had to say to Shanter:

“Here’s what you need to do,” Boyega said, addressing the man who played Captain Kirk. “Take a seat. Have a nice tea. And keep your mouth closed.”

Shatnet has yet to respond.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens opens December 18th.
