I think the original showed the earth being a flat disk and the first astronaut says "it's really flat?" And the second one says "always has been". But is about to shoot him to keep the knowledge of it safe from the masses.

But in this case, the one with the gun is Microsoft.

It is? I remembered the original as the continent being a giant Idaho and the first astronaut asks "it's all Idaho?"
