I think the gene splicing thing is a way of getting back to their roots. In the first one the big question was, how do you control these things? The famous quote we see all the time that was just posted a page ago. Well now they have shown that there is a way to control them and we are good at it. Ok, but that wasn't enough, now they had to take it to the next step and start genetically altering what they had created.

Dr. Ian Malcolm: If I may... Um, I'll tell you the problem with the scientific power that you're using here, it didn't require any discipline to attain it. You read what others had done and you took the next step. You didn't earn the knowledge for yourselves, so you don't take any responsibility for it. You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could, and before you even knew what you had, you patented it, and packaged it, and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox, and now

Dr. Ian Malcolm: you're selling it, you wanna sell it. Well...

Dr. Ian Malcolm: John, the kind of control you're attempting simply is... it's not possible. If there is one thing the history of evolution has taught us it's that life will not be contained. Life breaks free, it expands to new territories and crashes through barriers, painfully, maybe even dangerously, but, uh... well, there it is.

Further sends home the message from the first film, we shouldn't be tampering with this stuff because even if we find a way to control it we will always find a way to lose that control through our own need to expand and explore. Or maybe that is to deep for a movie about dinosaurs.
